Twelfth annual meeting of the European Society for the Study of Human Evolution.

After an unintentional 2‐year hiatus, the annual conference of the European Society for the Study of Human Evolution (ESHE) finally took place again in person. Hosted by the University of Tübingen (Germany), the conference was held at the Neue Aula, an historic building of the University, from the September 22 to 24, 2022. A total of 35 podium presentations, 33 Pecha Kucha presentations, and 120 posters covering a variety of interdisciplinary research topics were presented to over 200 registered attendees. Both the Podium and Pecha Kucha presentations were streamed to remote members online. Before the official start of the meeting, the research center, “The Role of Culture in Early Expansions of Humans” (ROCEEH) sponsored an introductory workshop to introduce the ROCEEH Out of Africa Database (ROAD). As in previous years, ESHE was able to support several student travel grants and provided childcare for the duration of the conference.
