Lecture: New mysteries of human origins

Looking at the new discoveries of the last decade and how have changed the questions we're asking about human origins.

I've been working with BadgerTalks since the organization began to help groups and organizations in Wisconsin organize events on human origins and evolution. For the last couple of years, in-person events really haven't been happening. So I was very happy to be a part of the series of BadgerTalks Live seminars.

In this presentation I give my perspectives on some of the biggest new discoveries of the last decade, and think about what these mean for the future of discoveries in paleoanthropology.
