[BERG] Seminars - April 19 & 20 - Alexandra Horowitz & Jim Anderson

Dear colleagues, dear BERGers, I'm delighted to announce that this week's BERG seminar, Wednesday April 19th, at 4pm, will be a discussion led by Dr Alexandra Horowitz from Barnard College. The title will be "Who is the dog?" We'll be discussing two of her recent papers: Centring individual animals to improve research and citation practices - https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/brv.12912 Considering the “Dog” in Dog–Human Interaction - https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fvets.2021.642821/full Both papers are available open access. The discussion will be hybrid to take advantage of the fact that Dr Jim Anderson -- a former Stirling colleague! -- will be joining us in person in the psychology common room (3A94), but Dr Horowitz and anyone who wishes to join remotely can do so using this link: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19:meeting_MjI5NTVhOGItNWM0OC00Nz… It promises to be an exciting discussion so please do join us!
