Rosenblatt Lecture: Paleofantasy
8610 Kennel Way, San Diego, 92037
Cost: Free
Where do society’s assumptions about ideal diets, clothing, lifestyle, and mating choices come from? Marlene Zuk, a professor in the College of Biological Sciences at the University of Minnesota, will separate myths from what scientific evidence suggests about human hardwiring at the 12th Richard H. and Glenda G. Rosenblatt Lectureship in Evolutionary Biology.
Zuk’s talk, “Paleofantasy: What Evolution Really Tells Us About Sex, Diet and How We Live,” is based on her 2013 book of the same name. At the Robert Paine Scripps Forum for Science, Society, and the Environment.
