Lamarck reloaded: Peter Smith at TEDxSouthamptonUniversity

In this fascinating and wide ranging talk, Professor Peter Smith revisits some of the more forgotten ideas of evolutionary theory to show how we are more than the sum of our genes. Evolution may be a directionless process, but the global flow of information and knowledge can allow us to make great leaps in medicine and society.

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)
