Hello Everyone,
I hope this email finds you well! I wanted to request for a BERG meeting on
the 3rd of July either at 5:00 or 5:30 pm (whatever is most convenient). I
am presenting at the BIAZA conference on the 9th of July and wanted some
feedback on my talk.
Its just a 10 minute talk, but I would really appreciate the critical
feedback since this is my first experience presenting at an academic
conference. The title of the talk is 'Captive Elephant Welfare- A case
study of an Indian Zoo'.
I do hope that some of you will be able to make it. Of course drinks and
snacks will be provided!
Look forward to seeing some of you
Warm regards
Sagarika
Zsuzsa has asked me to send the following message - I presume the usual slot of 5.30pm.....
Dear BERGers,
Hope you are all well!
I was thinking of bringing a few board games around next week (12th of June) so we can have some fun and catch up!
I have games about the mind, forests, clouds or even planets, so what would tickle your fancy?
Please let me know if you are interested and I will arrange nibbles and drinks accordingly!
Kind regards,
Zsuzsa

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!)
