About this event
Richard Dawkins presents an exploration of genetics and evolutionary biology, drawing on five decades of influential scientific work. Known for introducing concepts including the 'selfish gene' model and the term 'meme', Dawkins discusses how these ideas have shaped understanding across and beyond his discipline.
This live conversation incorporates recent research to examine how all living creatures function as archives of their ancestral worlds. Dawkins explores what evolutionary biology reveals about human nature and the mechanisms of natural selection, while addressing contemporary questions about genetics and cooperation at the molecular level.
