Western Psychology considers ‘Sex, Drugs and Rock n Roll’

A series of free public lectures, launching this week, featuring faculty members from Western University’s Psychology Department will examine the theme of ‘Sex, Drugs and Rock n Roll’ and why the mantra of the 60’s refers to much more than pop culture – namely the pursuit of pleasure as a central part of human nature.
Western Psychology’s sixth annual Psychology: The Science of Being Human public lecture series begins Thursday, April 10 at 7pm at London Public Library, Central Branch (251 Dundas St., London). Admission is free and includes two hours free validated parking in Citi Plaza during library hours.
The full schedule of speakers and topics includes:
Thursday, April 10, 7pm
‘The Scientific Study of Sex’ with William Fisher 
Thursday, April 17, 7pm
‘Addiction: It’s What You Expect’ with Riley Hinson
