Everything You Wanted To Know About Evolution – Monday 12 June 2017, 7pm

Have you ever wondered what makes us human? How did we evolve from our ape ancestors to become the planet’s dominant species? Genetically we are very much a Great Ape, but much has happened in the 7 to 10 million years since we diverged from our chimp cousins.

 
Join Dr David Booth from the University of Dundee as he discusses the genes that make us human and the forces that have shaped our evolution. David, who has had his genome scanned, will share what he has learned about his genes and how his background in evolutionary biology has helped him understand the hidden story of his DNA.

This discussion will explore the how’s and where’s of evolution, and why some people are choosing to deny the evidence before them.

Join at Avery & Co. at 34 South Tay Street on Monday 12 June 2017, at 7pm. This is a free event and everyone is welcome. There is no need to book in advance but arrive early to avoid disappointment.
