Lohrmanns meets Science: Evolution - Sex, wisdom teeth and left-wing bacilli
What do germs have to do with your everyday life? Why do some people no longer get wisdom teeth? And how has sexuality actually developed in the course of evolution? Our speakers will take you on an exciting, entertaining and beer-accompanied journey through the wonders of evolution.
Oliver Zierau, zoologist TU Dresden
Topic: Sex sells - even in nature!
Why reproduction not only serves the preservation of species, but is also fun and triggers an evolutionary arms race.
Christian Hannig, tooth keeper TU Dresden
Topic: Teeth in (human) apes. Caries and the like in us and our closest relatives.
Do gorillas need a toothbrush? Do chimpanzees also need to have their wisdom teeth removed? And what this reveals about our evolution.
Thorsten Mascher, microbiologist TU Dresden
Topic: Left bacilli - what microbes reveal about us and the world.
How tiny microorganisms could trigger major evolutionary changes - and what this means for our future.
