Dear all,
Apologies - there was a wee break in our BERG chain of communication. Fiona Maisels is definitely coming to BERG to give a talk tomorrow, entitled: "Roads, development and wildlife in Central Africa".
We start at 5.30pm in 3A94 as usual.
Hope to see you there!
Christine.

Dear all,
It's safe to say that this week's announcement requires no spoiler alert...
I'm not sure whether or not we have a speaker for tomorrow, as the person who signed up on Doodle has yet to provide a title or confirm their attendance. However, there will be drinks and nibbles as usual! There may or may not be a talk.

Please do sign up if you haven't presented anything at BERG recently! And let me know if there is anyone you would like to invite from further afield. We do have a small budget which can usually cover travel costs and hospitality for external speakers.
The meetings will be at the usual time and place: Wednesdays from 5.30pm in the Psychology Common Room.
Christine.

Dear all
Delighted to say that SCAB - the Scottish Conference on Animal Behaviour will be held in Edinburgh this year- Saturday 29th March.
Please see further details below. I hope we can get a good Psychology representation.

Best, Hannah

Dear all,
The annual Scottish Conference on Animal Behaviour will be held at the University of Edinburgh this year, on Saturday the 29th of March. This is a small conference with relaxed atmosphere, and a good opportunity for students and post docs to present their work.
Anyone wishing to present a talk or a poster can submit titles by emailing the organisers at SCAB.the.conference(a)gmail.com<mailto:SCAB.the.conference@gmail.com> by Friday the 14th of March. Please specify which form of presentation you would be interested in applying for. The preference in talks is given to students. We welcome titles on any aspect of animal behaviour, whether you observed it in lab or field, and whether you've used a microscope or a pair of binoculars to see it. We are happy to hear it all!
General registration ends on Friday the 22nd of March. The cost of the conference is £15, and includes tea/coffee, lunch and a wine reception. The fee can be payed at the door, in cash, as unfortunately we won't be able to take checks or bank transfers.
Please find attached the poster containing this information. We encourage you to circulate this announcement to any of your colleagues who might be interested, and if possible to print the poster and stick it up somewhere visible in your department.
You can also find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SCAB2014?ref=profile
Hope to see many of you in Edinburgh!
Best regards,
Maarit Maenpaa
