DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open for the conference.\n\nRELOCATING HUM
 AN ORIGINS - WHAT IF ADAM LIVED IN THE FOREST?\n\nJoin us for a day of dis
 covery and excitement\, challenging the way we do and communicate research
 . Come in person or follow us online.\n\nHomepage:\nhttp://relocatingorigi

 age_id=95":UL\n\nTHEME: \nConventional scientific wisdom holds that modern
  humans evolved in the East African savannah. But what if the cradle of hu
 man evolution was actually the Central African forest\, as hinted by new Y
 -chromosome results? How might this change our understanding of human evol
 ution? This conference explores the implications of a forest origin for hu
 man population genetics\, disease ecology\, social systems\, and cultural 
 evolution.\n\nKEYNOTE SPEAKERS: \n* *Prof Mark Thomas*\, University Colleg
