Hi!

In Berlin findet am 30.4-4.5.2009 ein spannendes Symposium zu vielen verschieden Themen rund um Tierpsychologie und Verhaltensbiologie statt. Es folgt nun ein Auszug von der Homepage der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, damit ihr ein paar mehr Informationen zum Symposium bekommt. Im unteren Teil des Artikels könnt ihr den Link der Homepage finden. Dort erhaltet ihr weitere und detaillierte Informationen zum Symposium.

From Tierpsychologie to Behavioural Biology –

Past, Present, and Future of an Evolving Science

International Symposium of the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and the Leopoldina

from 30 April to 4 May 2009 at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Senatssaal.

“The Symposium is open to all people. The participation is free of charge. Berlin Behavioural Biology Symposium The discipline of behavioural biology has developed in a rather complex fashion since its foundation as Tierpsychologie (animal psychology) at the beginning of the last century. It has been involved in various ways in conceptual as well as methodological trends and paradigm changes in biology and experienced a high degree of differentiation in its evolution. Subdisciplines such as ethology, behavioural ecology, sociobiology, neurophysiology, human ethology, biosemiotics, evolutionary psychology etc. have not only interacted independently with other disciplines, but have occasionally claimed to be exclusively representative of the entire field while being subjected to strong integrative efforts within the field at the same time. Berlin, as one of the founding centres of ethology and modern behavioural biology currently with several research groups at each of the city’s three universities, seems a good place to discuss the past, present and future of the discipline in an international forum. One of the “fathers of ethology”, Oskar Heinroth, worked at the Berlin Zoological Garden, Erwin Stresemann, together with Heinroth the mentor of Konrad Lorenz, was acting from the Museum of Natural History of the Humboldt Universitaet zu Berlin and in 1948 Günter Tembrock founded the first research institution for behavioural biology in Germany at the Zoological Institute of the Humboldt Universitaet. Based on this historical tradition, one aim is the development of concepts while supporting Berlin as a research centre for behavioural sciences.”
