Accidental evolution | Professor Darren Curnoe | TEDxBrisbane

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Is it possible that we are the result of an evolutionary one night stand? Evolutionary biologist and archeologist, Prof. Darrent Curnoe takes us on a whirlwind trip on the history of our species.

Professor Curnoe is an evolutionary biologist and archaeologist interested in all aspects of human evolution. He is former TV journalist and is passionate about communicating the science of human origins to a broad audience. He has been awarded for the discovery of the Red Deer Cave people, named the most significant archaeological finding of 2011–12 at the inaugural Shanghai Archaeological Forum.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
