Dear Students!
Our next speaker will be Algis Kuliukas who will talk about the Waterside Hypothesis (former Aquatic Ape Hypothesis). 
 
This is the paper you need to read:
 
Algis V. Kuliukas: A Wading Component in the Origin of Hominin Bipedalism

If you are interested in other arguments besides Bipedalism, I can send you an e-book which is quite resent (2012) and covers most of the arguments!
cheers

Dear Students!

Our next speaker will be Ed Green from UC Santa Cruz and he will be talking about recent human evolution "as revealed by Neanderthals" !

The paper you need to read for this seminar is called "A Draft Sequence of the Neanderthal Genome" by R.E. Green (and a hundred thousand others) from 2010!

Looking forward!

Dear Students!!

Welcome back from spring break - I hope you all had a good time and are refreshed for our next round of seminars!

This week we have Shaun Gallagher as a speaker, whose selected reading is in fact by Vittorio Gallese: Bodily selves in relation: embodied simulation as second person perspective on intersubjectivity. 

We sent the paper already before the spring break!

Please do not forget to post your comments by 9am  on Wednesday - they are part of your class participation!!!

cheers
