Meeting Description: 

The Edinburgh Lectures in Language Evolution are an annual series of lectures
surveying the state of the art in our understanding of the origins and
evolution of language in our species. Each year, we welcome one or more
distinguished visiting speakers to deliver lectures summarising their own work
and where they think the future breakthroughs in our understanding will come
from.

The 2022 edition of the Edinburgh Lectures in Language Evolution will be held
virtually, and is free and open to the public. This year's we are pleased to
host:

Ev Fedorenko (MIT) ''The language system in the human mind and brain'' (June
2nd, 16:00–17:30 BST)
Tom Griffiths (Princeton) ''Overcoming inductive biases in cumulative cultural
evolution'' (June 9th, 16:00–17:30 BST)
Asifa Majid (Oxford) ''Language and Cognition or languages and cognitions?''
(June 23rd, 16:00–17:30 BST)

Each event will begin with a virtual talk by one of the visiting speakers that
showcases their research. The talk will be followed by a panel discussion
between all three speakers, after which the audience will have an opportunity
to join the conversation.

Please register for individual events at the links provided on our webpage.
