I am hosting the International Animal-Computer Interaction Conference (https://www.aciconf.org/) at Glasgow University this year on 2nd-5th December. The ACI Conference focuses on animals using technologies, and I thought it might apply to some people in BERG who use computer technologies with various animals. The ACI Conference is an interdisciplinary conference, and the papers are peer-reviewed and published in affiliation with the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). The deadline for papers is the 31st of May, but we also have workshops, emerging work, and a doctoral consortium (normally with a $1000 prize). Many international people will be attending, and the topics typically cover various aspects of technology and animals, from machine learning to how to design technologies, the ethics and how to involve animals within studies, the use of technologies in zoos/homes, etc. If anyone would like more information, they can reach out to me. Cheers, Ilyena ________________________________ ________________________________ Scotland’s University for Sporting Excellence The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159
