Evolution Reading Group

The Evolution Reading Group is a weekly interdisciplinary reading group. It is comprised of students and academics from schools across the university including philosophy and biology. Readings for the meetings are drawn from behavioural ecology, comparative psychology, evolutionary theory and the philosophy of science. In the past there has been a particular focus upon the evolution of cognition. More recently we have turned to general philosophical issues in evolutionary theory. Members of the group take turns to suggest papers of interest to discuss.

Participation in the group is open and we welcome new members. Some prior understanding of basic evolutionary theory is recommended but not necessary. Along with being posted here, notices for this group are sent out to the evo.theory@anu.edu.au mailing list along with other information about evolution related events on campus. To join the mailing list go here.
