From terrifying T-Rex to super-sized sauropods – discover the story of the evolution of the dinosaurs

How did dinosaurs evolve, what did they evolve from, and could their descendants still be alive today? Chris Jarvis, from the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, will explain how rocks and fossils that are hundreds of millions of years old can unlock the secrets of the creatures that once ruled the Earth!

This event was filmed as part of our season entitled Nature and Nurture in Autumn 2008. Are we simply slaves to our selfish genes? Do we really have free will? What are the limits of our genetic inheritance? And how would we know? Let Science Oxford guide you through the science and ethics of genetics, as we invite you to explore the ways that Nature and Nurture make us act, think and feel.
