Right to left: Richard Dawkins, the distinguished evolutionary biologist, zoologist, science communicator & celebrated author, seen with Mobilium Global CEO, Ralph Simon. Dr Dawkins is an Emeritus Fellow of New College, Oxford and was Professor for Public Understanding of Science in the University of Oxford from 1995-2008. His ground-breaking book, The Selfish Gene popularised the gene-centered view of evolution and coined the word ‘meme’. In 2006, Dr Dawkins published The God Delusion, where he wrote that a supernatural creator almost certainly does not exist, and called religious faith a delusion. He founded the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason & Science in 2006 and since has won several academic and writing awards.
