Dear BERGers
I am pleased to say that Hayley Ash will be assisting in the organisation of
Behaviour and Evolution Research Group (BERG)
seminar this coming semester. These seminars are held on Wednesdays at 5.30pm in 3A94, and are generously sponsored by the Universities Federation for Animal Welfare (UFAW). If you are not already a member please consider joining
UFAW (http://www.ufaw.org.uk/
). It is still only £10 for students
(£30 others). By joining UFAW
you can help make real, practical and lasting advances to animal welfare throughout the world - for companion animals, farm animals, animals used in research, captive wild animals and those living in the wild that are affected by human activities. Please do
join to thank them for their continued support of us in BERG and to enhance animal welfare.
We are looking for people to volunteer to present at our BERG meeting slots for this semester.
The first meeting is on
Wednesday 16th September at 5.30pm in 3A94 (Psychology common room). We shall use this meeting for introductions, including I hope for our new MSc on Human Animal Interactions, and updates from the summer…please come prepared to share news of any grants
awarded, papers published, exciting conferences attended etc.
I have set up a Doodle sign-up, so just fill it out one date to indicate the week that you would like to present.
ONE person per week, please.
Presenting at BERG is an excellent way to practice talks, hone your presentation skills, get feedback on
grant application ideas, lead a discussion of a controversial/interesting research paper etc.
You can also suggest external speakers who we might invite (local speakers only please – we reimburse basic
expenses incurred).
The sign up is here:

please send Hayley a brief title
BEFORE Friday 4th
September so she can circulate the programme in advance. (hayley.ash@stir.ac.uk)
Supervisors

If you have new students who might wish to be on the BERG mailing list, please send them this e-mail. To sign
