Our second event 'Evolution out of Africa' will take place at 17:00-18:00, Saturday 16 June. For this event, our speakers - Angela Clow, Mark Thomas and Jonathan Rees - will look at how humans coped with the effects of migration including how we evolved to cope with shorter days and less intense sunlight as we migrated away from the equator and nearer the poles. Follow the link below for more details and to book tickets. We look forward to seeing you all in Cheltenham.
We are also pleased to be sponsoring an interactive event in the Discovery Zone at the festival following the award of a SfE Public Engagement Grant to the Centre for Integrative Mammalian Physiology and Pharmacology at Imperial College London, UK. On Sunday 17 June, from 10:00-17:00, students and faculty from Imperial College London will be joined by science-based artist Dr Lizzie Burns to ask the question 'How are your hormones?'
