From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There have been many lectures and lecture series named in honour of Charles Darwin. One long-running series ('Darwin Lecture in Human Biology', starting in 1960) was sponsored by the Galton Institute (the Eugenics Society prior to 1989) and the Institute of Biology. A more recent series ('Science and Medicine', from 2009) is co-sponsored by the Royal Society of Medicine and the Linnean Society of London. An annual set of public lectures were established in 1986 by Darwin College at Cambridge University.

Galton Institute[edit]

It appears that no lecture was made in 1963, or from 1995-2000, and none since the most recent one in 2001.

Darwin College[edit]

Darwin lecture series (from 1986). Eight lectures each year on a theme (seven in the inaugural year).

The third lecture series (1988) on the theme of 'Discoveries' does not appear to have been published and Darwin College's website does not list details other than the name of the theme.
