Day 4, anthropologist Adeline Le Cabec and philosopher Mathilde Lequin making everyone wish they were paleoanthropologists this morning. Nothing more intellectually stimulating than listening to passionate experts speak about their research 🙏

Day 3 kicked off with a fascinating talk from @cmaley.bsky.social and Orsolya Vincze about evolution and species resistance to cancer (plus considerations on what cancer is!).
Jonathan Sholl and I also spoke about various epistemological implications of animal model use across the life sciences.

Day 2 kicking off with a great talk from Scott Gilbert about holobionts and their implications for organism development.
Had our first group work sessions yesterday. Lisa Roux and I have proposed the open question of how to combine the engram and representational drift concepts in memory.
