Dear Colleagues,
we would like to draw your attention to the upcoming EUPRIM-Net Course on General Primate Biology (for scientists, veterinarians and students).
We will conduct the course on November 14.-17. 2011 at the German Primate Center (www.dpz.eu), to provide lectures and interactive seminar sessions on a variety of different topics related to Primate biology.
Therefore we have invited experts to convey the latest knowledge in the fields of
• Primate taxonomy/diversity
• Feeding strategies & competition
• Functional anatomy and locomotion
• Non-invasive endocrine assessments
• Primate behaviour & communication
As in the former courses we will be a small group comprising a maximum of 40 people. You will find ample time to interact during the session breaks as well as during the social events (e.g. guided city tour, convivial evenings).
Following the course we provide an optional test with questions on the respective course contents to certify your successful participation.
On our website: http://www.euprim-net.eu/network/courses.htm , you will find more detailed information on the course programme and a form to register.
At this site you will also find support for travel arrangements (site map and options for accomodation).
We offer substantial course-fee discounts for students and academics working at government-financed institutions.
Course fees are not applicable for EUPRIM-Net partner-institutes.
Registration deadline is set on the 28th of October 2011.
If you have any questions or requests concerning our course series in general or this course in particular, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon!
Best regards,
Thomas Ziegler
