About This Project

This project is an effort to make scientific knowledge about evolution accessible to Persian-speaking audiences. There are few Persian resources that describe and explain the core ideas of evolution concisely and coherently. This motivated me to translate and publish a portion of the content from the Understanding Evolution website, which was created by The University of California Museum of Paleontology (UCMP).
