Burghardt in the News

June 25, 2017 by wpeeb

Professor Gordon Burghardt appears in the June 23 Knoxville News-Sentinel, in an article by Philip Kronk called, “Fear of snakes may date to evolution in Africa.”

Burghardt also appears on The Evolution Institute website, in a conversation with Kevin Laland, author of “Darwin’s Unfinished Symphony: How Culture Made the Human Mind.”  They discuss adaptive trends and parallel evolution generated by niche construction.  Associate Professor Joe Bailey’s research gets mentioned, too!
