The Stone Age Institute and the IU Cognitive Science Program present a lecture by Dr. Natalie Uomini on April 14th at noon in Woodburn Hall on the IU campus.

Dr. Uomini is a professor in the Department of Linguistics and Cultural Evolution at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History in Jena, Germany. She studies the evolution of cognition, language, handedness, and tool-making, with interdisciplinary approaches that bridge animal behavior, anthropology, archaeology, cognitive science, linguistics, and psychology. Her lecture, titled "Ten Myths about Left-handedness" will discuss myths about handedness and the evolution of handedness.

This is a free public event presented in partnership with a grant from the John Templeton Foundation.
