(Re)volution

A series of talks for those who are asking questions about life, its origin and its future

Between October 15 and November 12, internationally recognised researchers from the Institute of Evolutionary Biology (CSIC-UPF) will offer a divulgative talk every Tuesday at 18 pm at the Biomedical Research Park of Barcelona (Dr. Aiguadé 88, Barcelona). The subjects will be as diverse as biology, philosophy, psychology and economics, among others. 

This way attendees may learn about many different topics: predicting the behavior of biological systems, the diversity of butterflies and the information they give us to climate change, the origin of multicellularity, the role of genes in our decisions or the past of the human species through the genome. They may also see up close one of the most important scientific institutions in Europe, the Biomedical Research Park of Barcelona.
