Joan Roughgarden, Professor Emerita, Biological Sciences and

Aspects of Gender and Sexuality. Dr.
Roughgarden challenged Darwin's theory of sexual
selection with a discussion of “social selection" in which gender roles
and sexuality are adaptations which facilitate cooperation in complex
societies. This lecture was a joint presentation of the Women in Scientific and Environmental Professions and Adaptive Peaks lecture series and
GSA’s Shifting Paradigms annual lecture.
