February 12, 2009 is the 200th anniversary of the birth of one of the most influential scientists of modern times, Charles Robert Darwin.

In celebration of this landmark event, Nature news has compiled Darwin 200, a resource that will provide continuously updated news, research and analysis on Darwin's life, his science, and his legacy.

I have added a link to this resource in the left sidebar, so be sure to re-visit it for updates throughout the year.
