BERG seminar this Wednesday (9am)
by Pawel Fedurek 05 Feb '24

05 Feb '24

Dear BERGers, Just a quick reminder that Michael Huffman (Kyoto University) will be giving a seminar this Wednesday entitled "The Evolution of Animal Self-Medication". Please note that the seminar will be delivered online at 9am due to Mike delivering his talk from Japan (link to the meeting below). The seminar will be chaired by Sharon. Abstract Dietary selection is an important process for the maintenance of health homeostasis. From the potential plants available in one’s environment, choices are made to ensure a proper balance of nutrients for energy, growth, maintenance, reproduction, and sometimes even their nesting material. Animals also select such plants for their medicinal properties. This rapidly growing field of research is known as animal self-medication. Infection by parasites, viruses, and other pathogens affects an animal’s behavior, health, and reproductive fitness. In response, across the animal kingdom, species have evolved a variety of means by which they counteract these affronts to their health homeostasis. Four basic modes for achieving this are: 1) behavioral avoidance or reduction of disease transmission: 2) ingestion of items with a prophylactic effect: 3) ingestion of substances of direct therapeutic value against pathogens: and 4) external application of these substances to the body or living area for the control of disease transmitting invertebrates or the treatment of wounds. Primates have provided considerable evidence for the control of intestinal parasites across all four modes, and there is much evidence being gathered across the animal kingdom to demonstrate the universality of this adaptive strategy. Traditionally, humans have also looked to the behavior of sick animals for insights into the uses of medicinal plants for themselves and their livestock. In this light, the field abounds with options for research into the applications of phytotherapy in captive and domestic livestock healthcare maintenance. Biosketch Michael A. Huffman is an Associate Professor in the Wildlife Research Center of Kyoto University, Japan. A native of Denver Colorado, he started his career in primatology as an undergraduate in 1979 with a field study on wild Japanese macaque behavioral ecology of Arashiyama (Kyoto) in the Department of Zoology, Kyoto University. This research became the foundation for his later field studies towards an MSc (1985) and DSc (1989) degrees in the Laboratory of Human Evolution Studies, Kyoto University. In addition to investigations on free-ranging and captive Japanese macaques spanning over 45 years, he has intensively studied the behavioral ecology of wild chimpanzees in Tanzania and Uganda, with a focus on primate host-parasite ecology, primate self-medication, and ethnopharmacology. Since 2006 he has been conducting fieldwork in Sri Lanka, Taiwan, India, and Vietnam, with collaborations in over 35 countries on all continents. With his students and his many collaborators, Huffman has published extensively in the fields of cultural primatology, animal self-medication, ethnobotany, pharmacology, primate host-parasite ecology, reproductive behavior and physiology, behavioral endocrinology, phylogeography, and historical primatology; including 10 books, over 240 refereed journal articles, book chapters, review articles and other miscellaneous publications. The research has covered over 15 free-ranging and captive primate species from apes to lemurs, and other mammals in Japan, Taiwan, Sri Lanka, India, Vietnam, China, Bangladesh, Tanzania, Uganda, Guinea, South Africa, Brazil, Italy, and Austria. He is deeply committed to building bridges through interdisciplinary collaborations and mentoring.

Reminder: BERG/SHAIR talk tomorrow
by Clare Andrews 30 Jan '24

30 Jan '24

Dear BERGers and SHAIRers, Our talk tomorrow (Weds 31 Jan, 4pm in the Psychology Common Room Cottrell, C3A94) ) will be by Dr Kay Sidebottom, University of Stirling – see you there! (or hybrid via Teams<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3a9823d93069124396a7a40d99c827…>) Pedagogies of Attunement: Learning from More-Than-Human Teachers Our current ecological predicament requires a shift to a post-anthropocentric educational paradigm in which we educate for and about a world that is not ‘for us,’ but comprised of a multitude of eco-systems of which we are simply a part. To facilitate this, education should be enacted differently; we need to experience learning not as furthering entrenched nature/culture binaries, but as ‘worlding’ processes, whereby imaginary divides between individual and environment are troubled, as humans and the material world are revealed to be relational and entangled (Braidotti, 2019). In this seminar I will share the story of a recent research project which in which participants (both human and non-) came together to explore what happens when we cease to privilege humans as the ultimate instructors and holders of knowledge. In doing so we disrupted normative research methodologies, drawing on an ethics of care and relationality which extended the ‘teacher’ role to non-human kin such as water, plants and animals. ________________________________ Scotland’s University for Sporting Excellence The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159

Public lecture and workshop
by Kirsten Blakey 08 Jan '24

08 Jan '24

Dear all, The Agency, Rationality and Epistemic Defeat (ARED) project has organised two upcoming events that may be of interest to some of you. The details and registrations links can be found below. Public Lecture<https://ared.stir.ac.uk/engagement/> First, we will host a public lecture by Professor Mark Rowlands on 31st January at the university. World on Fire: Climate, Extinction, Pandemic The world is currently facing three epoch-defining crises: climate change, mass extinction and newly emerging infectious diseases. While these crises may seem very different, they are, in fact, deeply connected. Understanding this connection allows us to identify the best way to solve all three of them. You can register for the public lecture here.<https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=9wmNTnnMy0yRSaQjjdF0IqU…> Workshop<https://ared.stir.ac.uk/events/> Second, there will be a workshop on 1st and 2nd February, this will be run in a hybrid format at the university and online. Propositional thought and truth-functional reasoning Despite widespread practice in cognitive and comparative psychology to ascribe beliefs and other propositional attitudes to very young children and non-human animals, the nature of such attitudes remains a matter of controversy. Some have suggested that they might involve imagistic or map-like representations rather than propositional ones. Others have emphasized the difficulty of individuating the concepts possessed and entertained by minimally verbal and non-verbal subjects and went on to question the accuracy and legitimacy of ascriptions of propositional attitudes to them. As truth-functional reasoning involves representational mechanism that go beyond the demonstrative-governed mechanisms characteristic of perception, the capacity for truth-functional reasoning is often taken to be a sign of propositional thought. Recent empirical research provides some evidence of truth-functional reasoning in non-human animals and young children, as the studies on children’s use of denial-negation and disjunctive syllogism in both animals and children illustrate. Nevertheless, in many cases explanations not involving propositional thought and deductive reasoning have been proposed by sceptics. In the third ARED workshop we engage with the issue of propositional thought and ascriptions thereof in non-verbal and minimally verbal subjects, together with its relation to truth-functional reasoning. Speakers: Josep Call, Laura Danon, Roman Feiman, Hans Glock, Juliane Kaminski, Brian Leahy, Angela Nyhout and Mark Rowlands. Participation can be online or in person. Please register here<https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=9wmNTnnMy0yRSaQjjdF0IqU…> or send an email to ared(a)stir.ac.uk<mailto:ared@stir.ac.uk> by January 24th 2024, indicating whether you wish to attend in person or online.
