Hot Science – Cool Talks

The Biology of Love on February 20th
What does science say about love and long-term relationships? Biologist Dr. Steven Phelps explores the biology of love through the surprising world of prairie voles, one of the few monogamous mammals.

The Story of Our Cosmic Home on March 27th
Astronomer Dr. Keith Hawkins takes us on a cosmic journey through the Milky Way. Using the light from thousands of stars, he decodes their chemical fingerprints and motions to uncover the story of how our galaxy formed, evolved, and grew into the spiral we see today.

The Way We Move on April 17th

Biological anthropologist Dr. Liza Shapiro invites us to rethink how we move. From nimble monkeys to powerful apes, primates walk, climb, leap, and scramble in wildly different ways. And humans? We’re the odd ones out… but not in the way you might think.
