| Abstract: | (CIT): What does the human hand have in common with the wing of a fly? Are breasts, sweat glands, and scales related? To understand the inner workings of our bodies and the origins of diseases, scientists turn to unexpected sources like worms, flies, and even fish. Dr. Shubin will tell the story of evolution by tracing the organs of the human body back millions of years, long before the first creatures walked the earth. |
