The MBL-ASU History of
Biology Seminar is an intensive week with annually varying topics
designed for advanced graduate students, postdoctoral associates,
younger scholars, and more established researchers in the history
and philosophy of science and the sciences. The group is limited
to 25 participants.
"Embryos in Historical Context"
In 1987, the first MBL History of Biology course focused on History of Embryology and Genetics. Embryology has always held a central place at the Marine Biological Laboratory, and the MBL has held a central place in the history of Embryology. As Embryology has become known as Developmental Biology, the MBL has continued to provided an important place for research and education asking about how development occurs. After 20 years, the History of Biology seminar again focuses on Embryology and Developmental Biology. MORE>>>
