We are delighted to celebrate the 2020 Templeton Prize, which was awarded to Francis Collins, BioLogos founder and current director of the National Institutes of Health, on Thursday, September 24. This prestigious prize, one of the largest annual awards given to an individual, recognizes “exemplary achievements” in “harnessing the power of the sciences to explore the deepest questions of the universe and humankind’s place and purpose within it.”
Few alive have had as illustrious a scientific career, or impacted countless lives as deeply in sharing the harmony between modern science and biblical faith.
We hope you’ll take a few minutes to explore our reflections on Francis Collins’ achievements, hear him share his own story and insights, and learn more about the work and mission that BioLogos continues to carry forward today.
