Joseph Thomas Cunningham (1859-1935) was a British marine biologist and zoologist known for his experiments on flatfish and his writings on neo-Lamarckism. Cunningham worked at the London Hospital Medical College. He completed his science scholarship at Balliol College, Oxford. Cunningham was a neo-Lamarckian. In his book Hormones and Heredity (1921) he proposed that the mechanism for the inheritance of acquired characteristics were hormones. He termed this "chemical Lamarckism".

Autorenporträt
J. T. Cunningham was an eminent biologist known for his contributions to the field of evolutionary theory and reproductive biology. Although not as widely recognized as some contemporaries, Cunningham made significant strides in understanding the role of hormones in heredity and development. His noteworthy book, 'Hormones and Heredity,' delves into the intricate interactions between hormonal functions and genetic inheritance, a relatively novel area of study at the time of writing. Cunningham's literary style is characterized by a rigorous scientific approach combined with a clear exposition that seeks to make complex biological concepts accessible to a broader audience. His passion for the subject is evident throughout his work, where he meticulously cites empirical evidence to support his theories. The scholarly community has acknowledged Cunningham's role in expanding the frontiers of knowledge in the interplay between endocrinology and genetics. The insights provided in his literature have paved the way for subsequent research in these domains and have had lasting impacts on the scientific understanding of the physiological mechanisms underlying development and heredity.
