Evolve magazine gives you an insight into the natural world and the work of the Museum both in the UK and around the world. It features interviews, exhibition news, events for your diary and some of the essential research done in our 5 science departments.

Issue 15

Evolve issue 15 opens with a look at some of the amazing photographs that make up renowned photographer Sebastião Salgado’s Genesis exhibition at the Museum. The images capture the balance of human relationships with our fragile planet. 

We have a special feature on Wallace100, the worldwide celebration of Alfred Russel Wallace, the co-discoverer of evolution by natural selection, on the centenary of his death. Award-winning writer Richard Conniff contributes to the feature with a look at the stories behind the latest acquisitions to the Museum's 70 million-plus collection of specimens from Wallace's expeditions.

Dr Joe Michalski delivers a second instalment of news from the Mars Curiosity rover, including what the rover has uncovered since the last issue and how scientists are interpreting the results.

Finally, comedian Bill Bailey tells us why he is inspired by the Museum. And Karolyn Shindler takes a closer look at Martin Hinton, former Keeper of Zoology at the Museum and suspect in the Piltdown Man forgery.

Regular features
  • Forgotten naturalists - we take a look at men and women who made their mark in the scientific and natural world through skill, determination and overcoming the odds.
