The Darwin Festival at Salem State University is a weeklong event that celebrates the work of Charles Darwin, with sessions from leading researchers celebrating the field of biology and its impact on today's world.

The 2023 Darwin Festival will take place Monday, February 13 through Friday, February 17, with two guest speakers each day: one at 11 am and one at 2 pm (check time zone if interested). All talks will be streamed and can be viewed remotely. Events are free and open to the public. You need to register online in advance to receive the link.
