Description
Through five major themes, we will make the connection between the principles of evolution and evolutionary ecology seen in previous teaching units in a fundamental way and current societal applications.
These five major themes are: human evolution, biodiversity conservation, the domestication of animal and plant species, evolutionary medicine, and major global crises and disruptions.
Two sessions on understanding and oral presentation of scientific articles are held in conjunction with the course "Evolutionary Ecology and its Applications."
