Biology Week: The science of why we exist

Join us for the final talk with the Department of Biology, University of Oxford for Biology Week 2024.

In this online talk, Tim Coulson – Professor of Zoology at the University of Oxford – will take you back to the beginning of everything: the Big Bang. From there, he will lead you through a 13.8-billion-year epic – a tale that culminates in the most astonishing thing we have yet encountered: the staggering complexity of the human mind. The talk will describe history of you, the speaker, and everything – of how we all came to be. In short, it is the greatest story ever told.

There will be a Q&A session at the end so do submit questions during the talk.

This event is free to attend and advanced registration is essential. Group school bookings are welcomed – teachers just need to register for the event.
