The titis and owl monkeys of South America live in socially-monogamous groups where the male and female establish a pair bond and share parental duties. Why do males of these species mate in a monogamous relationship, presumably foregoing other reproductive opportunities? Why are they such amazing fathers, investing heavily in offspring they cannot be certain they sired? Relying on ecological, behavioral, and genetic data collected over 28 years from wild populations in Argentina, Peru, and Ecuador, Professor Eduardo Fernandez-Duque discusses the role of food distribution, mate guarding, and infant care in the evolution of pair-bonds, monogamy, and paternal care. Eduardo Fernandez-Duque is Professor of Anthropology and the School of the Environment at Yale University. Trained in biological anthropology, psychology and primatology, he studies the behavioral, physiological, and ecological correlates of monogamy, pair-bonding, and parental care. His primate research in Ecuador, Perú, Argentina and the US has resulted in over 200 publications and the training of over 400 students from across the world. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Kavli Foundation, and a recipient of The John P. McGovern Lecture Award from the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

We do amazing things that are virtually scientific miracles, yet even with the most astounding technologies, we are doing them horribly wrong. We make life saving drugs – but we too often do it by generating 100-times as much toxic waste. We purify our water with lethal chemicals and raise our food in ways that contaminate our soil. In short, we do the “right things, wrong.” Does it have to be this way? Of course not. There’s a world-wide community of scientists who have invented countless innovations to do the right things right. Paul Anastas is known as “The Father of Green Chemistry” and spends his time as a professor at Yale University focused on reinventing the material and energy basis of our society and economy so that it is beneficial for people, prosperity, and the planet. He has co-founded successful companies, published hundreds of scientific papers and patents, served in four U.S. Presidential Administrations, and received numerous international awards for his work. He refers to himself as, “A simple country chemist.” This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

Altruism is often seen as the ultimate act of selflessness, but what happens when activism and personal sacrifice collide? In this talk, I explore the paradox of altruism—how the pursuit of doing good can blur the lines between genuine care and self-interest, using my experiences with Creative Play and refugee advocacy to question what it truly means to help. Ifigeneia Gianne, born and raised in Athens, Greece, is a rising senior at Bard College majoring in Anthropology and Theater. She is the co-founder of Creative Play, a Davis Projects for Peace Award-winning initiative that brings storytelling workshops to refugee communities in Malaysia through music, theater, and podcasting. Alongside this work, Ifigeneia explores the complexities of refugee resettlement in the United States for her senior thesis in Anthropology, examining the intersection of displacement, identity, and state policies. A passionate theater maker, Ifigeneia has directed Blood Wedding by Federico García Lorca, Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett, and co-directed and acted in The Ant Play, which she wrote herself. She was named the Stephen P. Snyder '62 Scholar for the 2024-2025 academic year and is committed to exploring the intersection of art and social studies, particularly through the lenses of activism and volunteering.
