Event Description:

EPCOR CENTRE presents National Geographic Live
>> Deep Ancestry with Spencer Wells <<
at EPCOR CENTRE's Jack Singer Concert Hall

Take an epic global journey in search of the secrets of our distant past. Since 2005 Spencer Wells, National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence and director of the Genographic Project, has led a team of scientists in collecting hundreds of thousands of DNA samples from participants around the world. Wells is creating a detailed, genetically-based map of human migration, using clues in our own cells to show how modern humans came to populate the planet after leaving the cradle of Africa some 60,000 years ago.
