Today, February 12, is Darwin Day, the 213rd birthday celebration of the father of the theory of evolution

Charles Darwin, the great British biologist was born on February 12, 1809 in Shrewsbury, in an English town not far from the borders of Wales. Darwin Day has been celebrated since 1882, immediately after his death: a day to pay homage to the theory of the Evolution of the Species

All over the world special events are organized to celebrate the English biologist with events, conferences and lectures, online and live.
