5.30pm. Following the BBC Two series Prehistoric Autopsy, Dr Isabelle De Groote, gives us a greater insight into three of the most iconic members of our prehistoric family: A Neanderthal, a Homo erectus and an Australopithecus afarensis.
The series explores what they looked like, how they lived, how they compare with us today and how we ended up being the only human species left. Isabelle will explore these themes in this talk which accompanies a free exhibition, Prehistoric Autopsy Uncovered.
Isabelle, a paleoanthropologist, has worked at the Natural History Museum in London and is now based at Liverpool John Moores University. She was an advisor on the series.
