Award Lecture - Primate Communication

31 October 2009
/ 2:00PM - 3:00PM.
@ The Manchester Museum
Free

How can we decipher how humans developed the ability to speak? There are no fossil remains to track! Dr Katie Slocombe approaches this problem by comparing human communication to non-human primate communication. Join us to hear her explain how this research is helping identify elements of language that we share with other primates and which are unique to humans.
