Jonathan Wells

John Corrigan Wells mejor conocido como Jonathan Wells (Nacido 1942) es un defensor del diseño inteligente, y es un senior fellow en el Center for Science & Culture del Discovery Institute . Su motivación para la búsqueda de la educación superior era principalmente para "destruir" el darwinismo, una idea que le resulta tan desagradable como el materialismo marxista.

Él tiene dos Ph.D.s uno en biología molecular y celular de la University of California at Berkeley, y el otro en estudios religiosos de Yale University. Ha trabajado como biólogo de investigación postdoctoral en la University of California at Berkeley y como supervisor de un laboratorio médico en Fairfield, California.También ha enseñado biología en la California State University en Hayward.

El Dr. Wells ha publicado artículos en Development, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA, BioSystems, The Scientist y The American Biology Teacher. Es autor de Charles Hodge's Critique of Darwinism (Edwin Mellen Press, 1988) y Icons of Evolution: Why much of what we teach about evolution is wrong (Regnery Publishing, 2000).
