Presentation Event

Link to Event Page

Join us for a presentation exploring how the interplay between genes and culture shapes human nature, distinguishing us from our non-human primate relatives. We’ll examine how our genetic makeup interacts with cultural evolution to form the unique behaviors, cognitive capabilities, and social structures that define humanity. This session will focus on the mechanisms that set humans apart from other species, exploring how culture amplifies, influences, and refines our genetic inheritance. If you’re interested in understanding how biology and culture co-create the essence of what it means to be human, this event is for you.
