How to pronounce“dobzhansky”in English

Dobzhansky also spent much of his career trying to convince people not to think of humans like inbred mutant flies: human “races” are not genetically defined, but socially

Dobzhansky was one of many scientists who hoped that people would read about human genetics and suddenly change their views on human difference.

Dobzhansky was not the only biologist to turn to statistics as a tool for describing variation in living things.

Sort of the opposite of Dobzhansky.

In fact, Dobzhansky showed that, in the wild, variations are inherited pretty much as Darwin would have predicted.

In his book, Dobzhansky defined evolution as the “change in the frequency of an allele within a gene pool.” Which is pretty much how we teach it today.

I think there's a great quote from Dobzhansky that says, "Nothing in biology makes sense, except in the light of evolution."
