}}Nelson R. Çabej (born November 17, 1939 in Gjirokastër, Albania) is a biologist and author. Education He obtained his B.A. in veterinary science in 1961, followed by B.A. in chemistry in 1976, and finally completed his doctorate degree (PhD) in biology in 1986. Career He worked as a veterinarian (1961–66 and 1975–1980), as immunologist (1970–1975), book editor (1980–1990) and biology lecturer (1985–1995). He lives in New Jersey with his family. His multifaceted scientific research includes widely different research areas, extending from applied biology (epizoology), experimental molecular biology and immunology, genetics, evolution theory, development and epigenetics to the history, history of science, linguistics, philosophy, journalism, and translation. Over the years, Çabej has penned about 100 articles and published 16 books in Albanian and English. Primarily investigative contributions are in the evolutionary biology with emphasis in the role of epigenetics through the nervous system in the evolution of the animal. The theory, which is positively valued in peer reviewed journals,[1][2] is presented in two publications, “The Epigenetic Principles of Evolution” (2012) and “Building the most Complex Structure on Earth” (2013).
