Since 1988, Dr. Richard Lenski's lab has been running an evolution experiment, studying over 75,000 generations of E. coli - a bit like watching millions of years of human evolution in just a few decades. Join him as he talks about Charles Darwin, what we're learning about evolution from watching it in real time, and what Darwin himself might have thought about it all.
