Subject: AW: BERG meeting today, 16:00
Dear Pawel,
thanks so much for organising the very interesting BERGs talk series. I am so glad I have the chance to join in at least sometimes in a while. Excuses for being invisible most of the time, kids are jumping around in the background😉.
Just wanted to share with you the possibility to follow also the EFP-GFP 2021 seminar series, which is also on every Wednesday starting today February 10th till to March 3rd 2021 - 16:00 - 17:30h CET. Attached the link. I signed in for it some while ago but sure you still can register.
https://www.efp-gfp2022arnhem.com/2021-seminar-series<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.efp-g…>
May you want to share it with BERGers as well.
Unfortunately, the time of the talks are overlapping. So, I might sometimes leave earlier....just to let you know..
Best wishes and thanks so much again for the great selection of talks,
seeing you later,
Yvonne

To whom it may concern,
I am currently studying at the University of the West of Scotland and I am contacting you regarding a research study I am conducting for my 4thyear dissertation.
Titled: A Qualitative Study into the Classification of Great Apes as Persons. Results of this study will allow me to draw conclusions as to whether great apes should be granted personhood.
I am aware that you have a Primatology department within your university, and I would greatly appreciate it if this email could be distributed among any lecturers, postgraduate or PhD students that may be interested in completing an interview for this study.
Please find attached the Participant Information Sheet for this research. The consent form will be sent to any willing participants.
I am aiming to complete the interviews by the end of February-beginning of March. Please take time to read the participant information sheet and contact me if you have any questions. Any willing participants can contact me via this email address or through my personal email addressc.s.oneill(a)hotmail.co.uk<mailto:c.s.oneill@hotmail.co.uk>to arrange a consent form and a date and time for the interview.
Thank you for your time, I look forward to hearing from you,
