New Zealand-born Dutch author, broadcaster, and professor
Armand Marie Leroi (born 16 July 1964)[2] evolutionary developmental biology at Imperial College in London .[3] [4] [5] Guardian First Book Award in 2004 for his book Mutants: On Genetic Variety and the Human Body . He has presented scientific documentaries on Channel 4 such as Alien Worlds (2005) and What Makes Us Human (2006), and BBC Four such as What Darwin Didn't Know Aristotle's Lagoon (2010), and Secret Science of Pop (2012).
Early life and education [ edit ]
A Dutch citizen, Leroi was born in Wellington , New Zealand. His youth was spent in New Zealand, South Africa and Canada. He was awarded a Bachelor of Science degree by Dalhousie University , Halifax , Canada in 1989, and a Ph.D. by the University of California, Irvine in 1993.[1] Albert Einstein College of Medicine , New York City using the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans [6] [7]
In 2001, Leroi was appointed lecturer at Imperial College, London . He has written several books, including Mutants: On Genetic Variety and the Human Body. [8] [9] Channel 4 entitled Human Mutants .[10]
Leroi has presented two other TV documentary series for Channel 4: Alien Worlds in 2005, and What Makes Us Human in 2006. Despite his TV appearances, Leroi has expressed scepticism about the truthfulness of television creatives. In an email exchange with TV director Martin Durkin , concerning the latter's documentary The Great Global Warming Swindle [11]
He is also known as one of the first testers of the beneficial acclimation hypothesis . In 2005, Leroi published an article in The New York Times [12]
In January 2009 Leroi presented the BBC4 documentary What Darwin Didn't Know Evolutionary Theory since the original publication of On the Origin of Species [13]
In January 2010 Leroi presented the BBC4 documentary Aristotle's Lagoon , filmed on the Greek island of Lesbos and suggesting that Aristotle was the world's first biologist .[2] The Lagoon: How Aristotle Invented Science. [14] [15] [6]
Leroi collaborated on the DarwinTunes evolutionary music project, using natural selection to create music.[16] Charles Darwin 's natural selection .[17] Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences [18] US Billboard Hot 100 between 1960 and 2010, and found that popular music emerged in three stylistic revolutions around 1964, 1983 and 1991. The study was published in the Royal Society Open Science [19] The Beatles to the evolution of music, he said, "They're not making that [1964] revolution, they're joining it.[20] The Secret Science of Pop on BBC4.[21]
Awards and honours [ edit ]
Leroi received the EMBO Award for Communication in the Life Sciences of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in 2006.[22] Guardian First Book Award for Mutants: On Genetic Variety and the Human Body .[23] [24] The Genetics Society .[25] Hellenic Centre for The Lagoon: How Aristotle Invented Science.
