Jan Horský won the second place in the student poster competition
The LEVYNA team was present at the annual conference of the Polish Society for Human and Evolution Studies (this year it was organized by the Human Ethology research group based at Charles University and, therefore, held in Prague). The conference also included a competition for the best student poster.
It was in this competition that Jan succeeded in winning the second place with a poster devoted to his research on the cultural transmission of moral systems through narrative art. You can see the poster here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1wiDnSghXEawrjdaIdNclyr_9hRtASTBL
