Next BERG SHAIR meeting 30th April
by Alejandro Sanchez Amaro 28 Apr '25

28 Apr '25

Dear all, In the next BERG/SHAIR meeting this week, Rahel Brügger (University of Zurich) will present her latest work. From understanding others to understanding ourselves – Insights into the evolution of the human mind from common marmosets Cooperatively breeding common marmosets are an ideal model species to investigate some of the key questions in the field of cognitive evolution. On the one hand how widespread are key socio-cognitive abilities such as an understanding of others' behaviour and their mental states but also social evaluation and on the other hand, how exactly did human excellence in social cognition evolve and can high (reproductive as well as ecological) interdependence be used to better understand human uniqueness. The talk further highlights how using non-invasive tools to investigate physiological parameters can be used to gain insights into cognitive processes not as easily accessible with behavioural experiments. Rahel will join us online (Wednesday 30th, 4pm). I will not be in campus, but feel free to gather in the Psychology Common Room as usual. link to attend online: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_NTliODBlNDQtMzM1MC00… best, Alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dr. Alejandro Sanchez-Amaro Lecturer in Psychology Cottrell Building Room 3B144c, Department of Psychology, Faculty of Natural Sciences University of Stirling @ Colleagues and Students: Please let me know of any EDI (Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion) -related issues that you would like me to bring to the attention of our Division's EDI Committee. ________________________________ Scotland’s University for Sporting Excellence The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159
