Dr van Wyhe is a historian of science, currently based at the University of Cambridge, whose recent research has challenged the long-held view that Darwin held back or kept his evolutionary theory secret for 20 years. He has also led the restoration of Darwin's Christ's College rooms [click here to see the restoration in progress and here to see their final appearance as photographed by Allison Maletz]. Dr van Wyhe is committed to sharing Darwin's work, scholarship and the history of science with the wider public. He lectures and broadcasts on Darwin, evolution and the history of science around the world.
