Dear Bergers! I'm delighted to announce that we have a full and varied schedule of seminar talks and discussions planned for this coming semester! The first seminar will be tomorrow, led by our very own Pawel Fedurek! Pawel will be hosting a discussion titled, "Chimpanzee poaching and impact research." Please join us in person, Wednesday, January 25th at 4pm in 3A94: Psychology Common Room! If you cannot attend in person and would like to join virtually, please email me (Sharon.Kessler(a)stir.ac.uk) and I will arrange it. Below you can find the list of our speakers scheduled for future weeks and the MS Teams link for the online talks. I will of course resend the information and links before each seminar. Looking forward to seeing you all for an exciting discussion tomorrow!
