Marion J. Lamb

Marion Julia Lamb (29 July 1939 – 12 December 2021) was Senior Lecturer at Birkbeck, University of London, before her retirement. She studied the effect of environmental conditions such as heat, radiation and pollution on metabolic activity and genetic mutability in the fruit fly ''Drosophila''. From the late 1980s, Lamb collaborated with Eva Jablonka, researching and writing on the inheritance of epigenetic variations, and in 2005 they co-authored the book ''Evolution in Four Dimensions'', considered by some to be in the vanguard of an ongoing revolution within evolutionary biology.
