The CSU Northridge College of Social and Behavioral Sciences Presents a Richard W. Smith Lecture in Cultural Studies: "Inside the Human Genome: Darwin or Intelligent Design?"

Please join us as acclaimed evolutionary geneticist Dr. John C. Avise addresses the philosophical question of “why” with regards to the myriad of imperfections that exist in our biological world.

Approaching the subject from a biochemistry and molecular genetics perspective, Dr. Avise points out the scientific evidence for genomic flaws, providing a compelling argument to counter the notion of intelligent design.

Reception and book signing immediately following.
