Evolution, niche-construction and home-making | prof. Niels Henrik Gregersen, theology, University of Copenhagen

Welcome to CVT’s symposium exploring human health and flourishing from the perspectives of evolutionary biology, psychology and spirituality. We invite researchers, students and the public to take part in conversations on how our lives are shaped both by what we know, and by what lies beyond scientific knowledge. Humans understand life through scientific knowledge, but also through faith commitments – whether secular-existential, spiritual or religious. Science and faith are sometimes seen as antagonistic. Yet can they also be seen as complementary or even synergistic sources of hope and meaning?
