Population Genetics

It is with profound sadness that we share the news that our colleague Dick Lewontin died on Sunday, July 4th after a lengthy period of ill health. He was best known for his stellar population genetics work, and to those close to him, for his generosity...

The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has awarded Professor Emeritus Richard Lewontin The Crafoord Prize in Biosciences 2015 for his pioneering contributions to the understanding of genetic polymorphism.

Congratulations to MCZ Faculty-Curator Emeritus Richard Lewontin, who was awarded the Thomas Hunt Morgan Medal by the Genetics Society of America for lifetime achievement in the field of genetics. (24 March 2017)
