The Institute for the Science of Origins videos from the Fall 2016 season of the Origins Science Scholars Program

During this unique program, members of the community engage with each other and with leading scholars of origins science to investigate cosmology, evolution, and other topics in the science of origins. Each evening begins with a presentation by a world-class researcher, followed by dinner and open discussion among all the participants.
