Her big thing was symbiogenesis which took main stream science many years to accept. At base for all of life and its evolution to today are the microbes. I hope when you have the time to read the books by Lynn Margulis ( with reverence) you will gain a panoramic view of life. She is some what redundant in some of her books, it always helped me see an aspect of the microcosmos I had missed.
Keep up the good work. See Jennifer's comment below.

I am glad my mother had such a profound influence on you, William. She was born with a love of nature and appreciation for all the creatures on earth, big and small. But especially the microbes!
