Dear BERGers,
I would like to raise your attention to a nice conference in Prague in
September about evolution and human behavior: http://2019.ptnce.pl/.
Christine Caldwell will be one of the invited plenary lecturers, and Craig
Roberts is the head on the scientific board. The conference is usually
small-scale, with friendly atmosphere and plenty of opportunities for
networking and sharing ideas.
The abstract submission is open until 16 June.
We are looking forward to seeing many new faces on our yearly conference.
Best wishes,
Zsófia
?Dear BERGers
I am giving a keynote presentation at the International Conference on Environmental Enrichment in Japan next month. The talk title is:
Enrichment for primates in laboratories and zoos: Same principles, different constraints
The talk is supposed to be about 25 minutes long.
I am looking for an audience for a practice presentation - to help me with timing, and to get feedback on content, flow etc.
If you are able to come along and give feedback I'd appreciate it. I can supply drinks and nibbles to entice!
Wednesday 22nd May, 5.30pm prompt, Psychology Common room - 3A94. I'll need to be away by 6.30pm.
Hope to see a few folk there!
Best wishes, Hannah
PS I have booked the common room every Wednesday from 5.15-7pm for BERG activities - so please feel free to use this slot as you see fit (academic or otherwise - Rosyl set a good precedent last week!)
