The
ASSAB 2008 conference will be held at The Novatel
Pacific Bay Resort in Coffs
Harbour
from 27 - 30 March (the week following Easter Sunday)
and will be hosted by Prof. Gisela Kaplan.
ASSAB
conferences provide an excellent forum for Animal Behaviour researchers
at all career stages from across Australasia to get together for a
series of high-quality scientific presentations, academic debate and
socializing. Many fruitful collaborations can be traced back to these
conferences. Its also a great place for students to meet potential
supervisors and for post-docs to meet prospective hosts. We look forward
to a taking these traditions forward to the 2008 conference.
Highlights:
A special symposium is planned for the evening and morning before
the official start of ASSAB2008 to honour Em. Prof. Lesley Rogers,
one of the co-founders of ASSAB (see Registration
for details).
Each
day of the conference will start with a Plenary presentation by an
invited speaker.
