The Society for the Study of Human Biology's annual symposium
this year has the title "Social information transmission and human
biology" and it will take place at University College, London, on
December 16-17th 2004.
The aim of this multi-disciplinary meeting is to explore how, why
and with what biological consequences the transmission of
information between individuals occurs. Contributers include
evolutionary modellers, human ecologists, psychologists,
archaeologists, anthropologists and researchers in public health.
There is an exciting line-up of speakers and we hope the
symposium will generate stimulating discussions about an area
that is fundamental to human biology and health, and yet which
has traditionally received substantially less attention than other
components of human biology.

abstracts,
