The "Advances in the Study of Human Cognitive Evolution" conference videos

The "Advances in the Study of Human Cognitive Evolution" conference took place in Oxford earlier this year.

The blurb reads: "An interdisciplinary conference focusing on new ideas and discoveries in research on the evolution of human cognition The conference focuses on genetic, developmental, and socio-cultural processes that have played a particularly significant role in the evolution of human cognition, and on uniquely human cognitive achievements in domains such as causal understanding, language, social learning, theory of mind and meta-cognition.".

There's quite a bit about social transmission and evolution.

Abstracts for the papers are here.

The videos from the conference have now been posted - here.
