WNYC is a media partner of the New York Academy of Sciences, presenting The Will to Meaning: Seeking the 'Why' of Our Existence series. The second event in the three-part series will be the evening lecture, The Story of Life: Critical Insights from Evolutionary Biology. Moderated by journalist Steve Paulson, Executive Producer of Wisconsin Public Radio’s To the Best of Our Knowledge, this panel discussion brings together paleoanthropologists Melanie Chang and Ian Tattersall and paleontologist Simon Conway Morris to share their insights on what evolutionary biology can tell us about the meaning of our lives, and explain how purpose can be gleaned from the remarkable story of life itself.
