- BERG - University of Stirling Mailing Lists

by Gema Martin-Ordas

Dear all, On Wednesday this week at 4pm, Prof. Bennett Schwartz (Florida International University, USA) will be talking about metacognition. Please, see below the title and short abstract for his talk. As I mentioned before, this meeting will be online (below is the teams link). However, I have booked the Psychology common room for all our meetings, so I will be there with my computer setting up the talk. You’re welcome to join me there. Title: Comparative approaches and the natural ecology of metacognition Abstract: Most cognitive scientists assume that our core cognitive abilities evolved through natural selection. However, we lack the ability to assess causality concerning the natural selection processes that shaped human cognition. As such, I advocate a comparative approach to understand the potential natural selection of cognition. In this talk, I consider metacognition, the experience and knowledge of one’s own cognitive system. I compare the methods used in humans and non-human primates with respect to both the cognitive mechanisms underlying metacognition and the accuracy of metacognition at predicting performance on an object-level task. I advocate for an approach to metacognition that makes hypotheses based on natural ecology and then applies those hypotheses to a wide range of species.

A cousin of North America’s grizzly, it is a unique subspecies that became geographically isolated from other brown bears in Europe. With a population of about 60 remaining, the Marsican brown bear is at extremely high risk of extinction. That’s why we’re supporting Salviamo l’Orso. A local NGO, they’ve been working in ‘corridor’ areas to expand the bear population beyond the Abruzzo National Park to neighbouring protected areas.

CAUTION: This email originated from outside University of Stirling. Do not follow links or open attachments if you doubt the authenticity of the sender or the content. ________________________________ Hello Pawel, I was wondering if you could forward the following information to BERG members, it could be possible interest to someone. Editor in Chief positions (x2) Dear Colleagues, I hope you are doing well! As the newly elected President of the Linnean Society of London, I am writing to alert you to two ongoing searches for the Editor in Chief role for two of the Linnean Society journals – specifically the Botanical Journal and the Zoological Journal, and to ask for your assistance in spreading the word among your communities and networks. The Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society publishes original papers on systematic and evolutionary zoology and comparative studies of both living and fossil animals, while the Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society publishes original papers on systematic and evolutionary botany and comparative studies of both living and fossil plants. Both of these Editor-in-Chief positions will receive an honorarium of £15,000 per year (plus up to £1,000 in travel expenses for the purpose of attending conferences to publicise the journal) and will be appointed for a fixed three-year period, with a start date of 1 April 2023. It will also be expected that the successful applicant will make themselves available to shadow the existing Editors-in-Chief from October/November 2022 to the end of March 2023 to enable a smooth transition. The Editors-in-Chief will be supported by a Journal Editorial Manager who will manage all the journal’s online systems, processes and relationships to ensure that the journal is published in a timely manner and adheres to the highest editorial standards. They are further supported by a Journal Officer who is responsible for supporting the Journal Editorial Manager in the delivery and production of the required administrative support to the Editors-in-Chief of the Linnean Society Journals. The decision to create this in-house administrative team to support the Editor-in-Chief and Editorial Board was made by the Linnean Society’s Council earlier this year, in order to reduce the administrative workload on the Editor-in-Chief and allow them to spend more time on setting out a future direction for the journal and (with the assistance of the Linnean Society and our publishers OUP) raising the profile of the journal amongst authors and sourcing interesting papers. For the Editors-in-Chief roles, we are especially interested in finding a creative individual who will work with us to facilitate the future development of the journals, and who possesses the appropriate networks and communication skills to ensure that the journal thrives at the international level. UK residency is not required for these roles, and we welcome applications from early career scientists with relevant editorial experience. Mindful of EDI (equality, diversity and inclusion) principles, the new Editors-in-Chief will continue to ensure a diversity of authors and editorial board members and will be committed to widening access to research to a broader community of all those interested in protecting nature. Further details of both Editor-in-Chief roles are available here: https://www.linnean.org/the-society/vacancies-and-volunteering<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linne…>. Please note the deadline for the Editor-in-Chief of the Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society role is next Thursday, September 8 (12pm BST). The deadline for the Editor-in-Chief of the Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society role is Friday, September 16 (12pm BST). Thank you for your help in disseminating these exciting opportunities, and I look forward to seeing many of you at conferences this autumn and winter! Best wishes, Anjali **************************************************** Prof. Anjali Goswami President, Linnean Society of London Dean of Postgraduate Education Research Leader, Department of Life Sciences The Natural History Museum Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD UK a.goswami(a)nhm.ac.uk<mailto:a.goswami@nhm.ac.uk> goswamilab.com<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgoswamilab…> ________________________________ Scotland’s University for Sporting Excellence The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159

Movie Animals Protected (MAP) position

by Hannah Buchanan-Smith

In case of interest to someone.... Movie Animals Protected (MAP) is looking for part-time on-call representatives to oversee the humane treatment and safety of animals in film & television. We are looking for part-time on-call representatives in the London area (England), Budapest, France, Prague, Istanbul, and other European locations. Additional information from Ken Gold, a colleague who asked me to advertise: These are most certainly paid positions, but part-time. We will be advertising until the positions are filled. Ideally we are looking for local people near where the filming occurs, but some travel expenses will be covered dependent upon the specific jobs. Details of how to apply in attached document. Hannah's view: Aside from educational documentaries, I personally do not approve of (most of) the use of animals in film and television, given the potential for widespread negative consequences, and potential for animal alternatives (CGI etc). But given that it happens, overseeing animal treatment and diplomatically questioning their inclusion and the impact to the viewing public is a critical role. e.g. see https://www.internationalprimatologicalsociety.org/policy-statements-and-gu… Hannah M.

BERG meetings in the fall

by Gema Martin-Ordas

Dear all, I hope you’re well. I am just emailing to let you know that we will start our series of BERG meetings on the 14th of September, at 4pm. Please, find attached the schedule for the fall and link for the online meetings. I have indicated which talks will be online and which ones F2F, however I have managed to book the Common room for Wednesdays 4pm-5pm starting on the 14th of September until mid-December. This opens up the possibility of meeting in that room (for those who are in Stirling and prefer to listen to the talks in the company of others rather than from the office or home) even if the talks are online. I will be sending reminders about the talks, so I can remind you about this possibility as well 😊 See you soon, Gema ________________________________ Scotland’s University for Sporting Excellence The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159

You can now register until the 22nd of July. The places can now also be filled by non SPRG members. So please spread the word. We are also extremely delighted to announce this year’s keynote speaker: Prof. Amanda Seed from the University of St Andrews (https://seedlab.wp.st-andrews.ac.uk/<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fseedlab.w…>). Amanda is internationally renowned for her research on the evolution of flexible behaviour and abstract thought in non-human primates and children. She is the director of the ‘Living Links to Human Evolution’ research centre at Edinburgh Zoo, and a member of the RSE Young Academy of Scotland. On top, she is a fantastic speaker, and we were very excited that she will be talking at our meeting. Thanks, Amanda, we are very much looking forward to hearing more about your research. We have set up a car-pooling website - please add your car here if you intend to drive, and others can sign up for lifts: https://www.groupcarpool.com/t/293cip<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.group…> Another option is taking a train to Montrose and taking a taxi (approx. 30 min taxi ride). If you intend to do this, and would like to share a taxi with others, you could also add your intended taxi time to the carpool above for others to join. If you've signed up already, please remember to send us your abstract and make the payment. All the best, Emma McEwen & Manon Schweinfurth *** Dates and deadlines in a nutshell *** Registration deadline: 15th of July ***NOW*** 22nd of July Abstract deadline: 29th of July Burn meeting: 2nd – 4th September From: Manon Schweinfurth <ms397(a)st-andrews.ac.uk> Sent: 22 June 2022 14:34 To: sprg(a)st-andrews.ac.uk <sprg(a)st-andrews.ac.uk> Cc: Emma McEwen <esm7(a)st-andrews.ac.uk>; Hannah Buchanan-Smith <h.m.buchanan-smith(a)stir.ac.uk> Subject: Burn Meeting: 2-4 September 2022 - registration CAUTION: This email originated from outside University of Stirling. Do not follow links or open attachments if you doubt the authenticity of the sender or the content. ________________________________ Dear all, The last Burn meeting (also known as the annual Scottish Primate Research Group ‘SPRG’ meeting) took place in 2019. The pandemic hit, field seasons had to be cancelled, and many in-person conferences, like our Burn meeting, too. However, the world looks a bit different now and we are thrilled to let you know that the next Burn meeting will go ahead, taking place from 2nd - 4th of September 2022 in ‘The Burn’. We can arrive from 4:00pm on Friday and leave after lunch on Sunday. For those of you who are new to SPRG, please find more information on our homepage (https://scottishprimate.wp.st-andrews.ac.uk/history/). Our annual Burn meeting is a chance for all members to get together in the beautiful surroundings of The Burn, to discuss research that is going on within our group, and of course to walk, chat, play games, eat, drink, and be merry. You can find more details about the venue on their website (http://theburn.goodenough.ac.uk/). There will be a series of talks given throughout the weekend and one of the speakers could be you. These presentations do not need to be particularly formal talks - The Burn is a great place to discuss project plans or analyses in the works. *** Reply early to avoid disappointment *** Places are limited, so don't miss your chance. In the first instance, bookings are restricted to members and SPRG associates, which is everyone affiliated with one of the core SPRG universities. However, should places be left unclaimed by the middle of July, invitations will be opened to colleagues from further afield. The costs of staying at The Burn are heavily subsidised by the Charitable Trust, and so remain very reasonable. The price of attending the entire meeting, which includes room and meals, will be £160. Most rooms have only two or three beds. If you have preferences with whom you’d like to share your room, please let us know. We can offer some single bedrooms. However, because single occupancy rooms are limited in number, we will offer these on a first-come first-serve basis and we cannot guarantee that we can offer many of those. To register for the meeting, please send Manon an email at ms397(a)st-andrews.ac.uk until the 15th of July or as soon as possible as places are limited. Please use the subject header ‘SPRG Burn Meeting 2022’ and include the following details: Your name: With whom you’d like to share your room: (if any) If you’d rather have a single room: (yes/no) Affiliation and career stage: (e.g., St Andrews, PhD student) Dietary requirements: (if any) If you are interested in giving a talk: (yes/no) If you would like to give a presentation, please send Manon a Word file with the title, authors, affiliation(s), and a short abstract (200-300 words) until the 29th of July. We are very excited to seeing many of you at the next Burn meeting, Emma McEwen & Manon Schweinfurth P.s. (1): Many things happen in three years and after giving it a lot of thought, Dr Lara Wood had to step down from organising the meeting. We had the 2020 meeting ready to go and organised several postponed meetings, for which Lara has been instrumental.

The Scottish SPCA is looking for volunteer literature reviewers

by Hannah Buchanan-Smith

Exciting opportunity! The Scottish SPCA is looking for volunteer literature reviewers to help contribute to their ethics and policy subcommittees. Please follow this link if you have an interest in animal welfare and veterinary science across farm, wild and companion animal subjects. https://volunteer.scottishspca.org/opportunities/33453-ethics-policy-commit…<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvolunteer…> Some further information is below. Would you, or anyone you know, like to help shape Scottish SPCA policy? We are looking for volunteers to conduct literature reviews for our wildlife, farm animal and companion animal ethics and policy subcommittees. Applicants will support the remit of the main group which is: • to consider ethical implications of current and future policies and procedures and provide advice, guidance and recommendations; • to improve animal welfare in Scotland for companion, wild and farm animals through creation and adoption of appropriate guidelines; • to increase public awareness of what good animal welfare is; • to improve care provided through enhanced facilities and veterinary services to decrease issues regarding individual species. The workload and time commitment will be agreed between the volunteer and the subcommittee Chair(s) on an individual basis. The expectation is that the time commitment will usually involve around 10 hours per month, in order to support meaningful progress. Please share this with anyone who might be interested: https://volunteer.scottishspca.org/opportunities/33453-ethics-policy-commit…<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvolunteer…> Lee-ann Howieson Public Affairs Advisor Scottish SPCA 03000 999 999 Public.Affairs(a)scottishspca.org<mailto:Public.Affairs@scottishspca.org> [Here For All Animals email sig] <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgfidisc.sc…> ________________________________ Scottish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Scottish SPCA) Tel: 03000 999 999 www.scottishspca.org/join<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.scotti…> www.scottishspca.org/rehoming<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.scotti…> Scottish Charity No. SC 006467 This message is confidential.
