Just as physics provides a foundation for chemistry, and chemistry for medicine, biology is the natural foundation for any science that seeks to understand the behavior of living beings, including humans. This year we will be holding the 8th Toulouse Economics and Biology Workshop. In the past, this workshop has dealt with topics such as the evolutionary foundations of morality, cultural evolution, the intra-generational transmission of preferences, the family, and cognition and rationality. This year the theme is Fertility. Speakers come from several disciplines, including anthropology, biology, demography, and economics.

Besides the plenary sessions, there will be a poster session to which post-docs and Ph.D. students are most welcome to submit applications (abstract + CV + cover letter) to econbio_poster@iast.fr  no later than March 31, 2020.
