CANCELLED: Evolutionary Approaches to Adolescnce: EHBEA 2020 Symposium

Thank you for your interest.

Due to the cancellation of EHBEA2020, this event has now been cancelled.

We invite researchers interested in adolescence to join us for a one-day symposium on “evolutionary approaches to adolescence.” Across disciplines, adolescence is increasingly recognised as a key life stage, with distinct and interesting characteristics. What has evolutionary-informed research contributed so far, and what are our opportunities? The broad aims of the day are to share existing research around the topic of adolescence, network with other researchers with similar interests, and collectively identify future research directions with the greatest utility for our field. Through invited research talks and guided participant discussions, we hope to facilitate a productive atmosphere for knowledge exchange and future collaboration.
