My Favorite Lecture:

Presenter(s):
Mark Fraiser
Description:
Recent fossil evidence indicates early Hominids were bipedal locomotors; with a relatively small brain about one half the size of modern humans. Could it be that bipedal locomotion was the driving force behind future evolutionary events including cerebral enlargement? In this lecture we will explore the fossil evidence for bipedal locomotion, anatomical features in bones and muscles that allow bipedal locomotion and the development of the neocortex.
