SUMMARY:Janet Sinsheimer - Family Feuds: Maternal-Fetal Genotype Incompatibility
DESCRIPTION:Janet Sinsheimer: UCLA Departments of Human Genetics\, Biomathematics and BiostatisticsBiological mechanisms involving a combination of genetic and environmental factors have been hypothesized to explain susceptibility to complex familial\ndisease. I will present our efforts to detect interactions between mother’s and child’s genes that may create adverse prenatal environments and increase susceptibility to diseases such as schizophrenia and rheumatoid arthritis.http://www.bec.ucla.edu/papers/Sinsheimer_5.7.07a.pdf

SUMMARY:Carl Lipo - Resolution of the Cultural Phylogenies of Monumental Statues on Easter Island
DESCRIPTION:Carl Lipo: CSU Long Beach Department of AnthropologyThe monumental statues (moai) of Easter Island represent substantial investment in cultural elaboration by the prehistoric islanders. Constructing explanations of these features requires generating measurements of temporal and spatial statue variability. Using a method based in cultural transmission\, cladistics and occurrence seriation I present the results of analysis that potentially reflects a phylogeny of the monumental statues. This work enables the evaluation of models of statue change in which diversity of styles and materials produces patterns of lineages and the general form of an explanatory model for the evolution of culture elaboration on this famous island.

SUMMARY:Stacey Rucas - Allies and Rivals: The Complex world of women's social dynamics among the Tsimane of Bolivia
DESCRIPTION:Stacey Rucas: California Polytechnic State University Department of Social SciencesThis research examines the complexity of women’s social behaviors with other women through various modes of evolutionary inquiry and methods. Results indicate that women engage in alternating forms of competitive and cooperative behaviors across the lifecourse in their quest for reproductively limiting resources. Data presented will highlight several avenues of research conducted with the Tsimane that attempt to identify contested resources\, track their exchanges\, and understand the use of social aggression to secure status and compete (or cooperate) for friends\, mates and food within female social networks.
