Her talk will consider how basic evolutionary principles can provide insights into human disease and treatment.

Darwin hated hospitals. We cannot use science to help the unfit overcome natural selection weeding them out. To Darwin hospitals violated laws of nature which never change. The destitute should die. We should not assist those in Haiti. We must not assist others.
