International week of science and peace

Good morning everyone. Today I am standing here to talk to you all about the “International week of science and peace.” The International Week of Science and Peace was first observed during 1986 as part of the observance of the International Year of Peace. In recognition of the value of the annual observance, the General Assembly adopted resolution 43/61 in December 1988, which proclaims the “International Week of Science and Peace”, to take place each year during the week in which 11 November falls. This Week encourages greater academic exchanges on a subject of universal importance while also generating greater awareness of the relationship of science and peace among the general public. We are going to be contributing to this event by enlightening you all on the main topic for this week. “How does science play a role in influencing the society”? We have put together a set of famous scientists that have helped our world grow so much, to where we are today.

Biology:-


      Ø Gregor Mendel – Father of genetics

      Ø Charles Darwin – Law of natural selection

      Ø  Rosalind Franklin – DNA structure

Ø  Jean-Baptiste Lamarck – Father of evolution

Ø  Erich von Tschermak – Genetic Mutation
