ALLELE (Alabama Lectures on Life's Evolution) is a series of public lectures on evolution. Its purpose is to improve the understanding of evolution for citizens of Alabama. Multiple departments, disciplines, colleges, and programs sponsor well-known speakers on the science, limits, implications, and unifying power of evolution as an explanation of the origin of species and diversity of life. Lectures are presented at a popular level of understanding, and the public is welcome.

The ALLELE series will continue with a slate of six speakers in spring and fall 2009. Visit this page again for the schedule.
