Esteemed evolutionary biologists and UM Distinguished Visiting Professors in Biology Peter and Rosemary Grant of Princeton University will speak on “Biodiversity and the Radiation of Darwin's Finches” on Tuesday, January 31st at 6:30 PM at the University of Miami's Whitten Learning Center, Room 110. The Grants have spent four decades studying the Darwin’s Finches of the Galápagos. First made famous by Charles Darwin, the finches are a group of 14 species of passerine birds whose beaks are highly adapted to different food sources. By continuously tracking finch populations over 40 years, the Grants have uncovered the causes and consequences of significant events leading to evolutionary changes in species.
