In this lecture, Dr. Danny Zevi explores the impact of the genome on human development. He delves into the encounters between humans and Neanderthals and the impact of mutations on evolution. We will also discover the latest findings on the Jewish genome and the effects of pandemics and wars on our genes.
How was the first human born and what really happened when they encountered the Neanderthals? What secrets are hidden in our genes, and what have scientists discovered about the Jewish genome? How did Genghis Khan and random mutations change the face of humanity forever? In his fascinating lecture, Dr. Danny Zavi reveals the story of human evolution like you’ve never heard before. We'll discover how plagues, wars, and migrations shaped our genetic destiny, what scientists found about the meeting between Neanderthals and modern humans, and how random mutations have influenced the evolutionary path of all of us. What if the secrets within our genome not only reveal the past but also hold the key to humanity's future? Behind every gene lies a story of love, survival, conquest, and amazing achievements of the human species. An intriguing meeting! Don't miss it.
