About the event

Join world-renowned evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins for a landmark live event celebrating fifty years since The Selfish Gene transformed scientific understanding. Reflecting on the book's revolutionary ideas, the global debates it sparked, and five decades of subsequent research, Dawkins, one of the most consequential scientific communicators of our time, explores what the gene-centred view of evolution has confirmed, challenged, and why its core questions remain urgent today. This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from the scientist whose work redefined our understanding of life, behaviour, and human nature.
