Mendel, considered the father of genetics, is the starting point of the scientific teaching of genetics. In the 21st century, should we teach Mendel and inheritance differently?

Epidemics. Student revolutions. Educational reforms. Failed exams. Training in physics and evolutionary biology.

How did Vienna become Mendel?

"Think very carefully about all the assumptions that go into Mendel's paper. And test them."

I watched excerpts of "Inherit the Wind" (1960) on youtube today in preparation for a lecture on "Mendelian Extensions" at Tufts tomorrow. It's so clear that the anti-intellectual, anti-Darwinian sentiment is still so strong in the US. I'd rather not tiptoe around those who won't accept a rational, scientific explanation for complex adaptations and the senses. Rant.

@pseudacris Great perspective! I don't teach Mendelism, per se, in my university genetics class. And emphasize their complex role in producing traits. But it's already ingrained by the time I get them in my class. I'll head to the library tomorrow to check out his book "Making sense of genes".

Just in time for our final team dinner today. Photos from the at the Faculty of Life Sciences are now out! This is our mascot-- Mendel's Giant Pea -- sitting behind the new biology building of University of Vienna. The department moved in last year, right before our project started!

UniVienna project team with 's Ines Mehu-Blantar toasting with a special champagne made specifically for this year by colleagues in Brno!

One of our last performances. This interactive theater has 2 parts: 1/ GJ himself transported to the present day to talk about his life, work, & reactions to current genetics. 2/ The actor revealing himself as a scientist & leading an open-ended Q&A about anything genetics. A rare opportunity for mid-high schoolers to go through the emotional & rational process of science AND freely address burning questions. Something they can't do in classrooms!

3) 's contribution to this was conjecturing a biological mechanism that made this process happen.

He was lacking a lot of information, but he made an educated guess that turned out to be true. Well, *mostly true* because other, much less important mechanisms emerged lately.

First sign of vindication came with 's work. And then DNA was discovered, which gave the whole process a biochemical basis, something that had been conjectured by three decades earlier. /end

The crown jewel of the overall project is the reconstruction of 's greenhouse at his Abbey in , which will have a grand opening this weekend!

grants are an interesting way for scientists to work with partners in industry. They primarily fund projects that can lead to lasting cross-border collabs, esp in culture & infrastructure. Proposals are way lighter than normal research grants, but it's a notoriously admin-heavy process!
