Ridley Lecture

Dr Matt Ridley, an Oxford University educated zoologist and author of many critically acclaimed international top sellers such as ‘Genome’ and ‘Nature via Nurture’ gave an enthralling lecture at Highgate School to its students and also to students of Chrysalis Partnership schools.

His talk on ‘Darwin and Genes’ was a brilliant and pertinent ending to the celebration of Darwin’s bicentenary.  JCYW
