Česká a slovenská etologická společnost

Mission statement

The society provides a forum for an exchange of scientific knowledge and views to all its members from various branches of science involved in the study of behaviour. Views from different professional backgrounds can enrich our understanding. The aim of the society is to advance behavioural science in basic and applied ethology, encourage research and other contributions to knowledge relating to behaviour but also to behavioural problems in the farm, companion and free-living animals, and to promote communication of this knowledge.

Twenty Expenses Paid Fellowships to New Zealand to Be Awarded to EU Researchers

FOOD-FRENZ is a co-ordinated collaboration project between the EU and New Zealand with two key objectives:
(1) To strengthen relationships between consumers, knowledge providers and industry in the EU and NZ; and
(2) To develop best practice for delivery and production of safe, sustainable, traceable and high quality food in the EU and NZ. Much more detail about the FOOD-FRENZ project, its aims, objectives and the key themes driving it can be found at the following link: http://www.foodfrenz.com

As part of the FOOD-FRENZ project we will be awarding twenty expenses paid fellowships to New Zealand for EU researchers from industry and research-based organisations. These study visits represent a unique opportunity for researchers to work alongside and build strong collaborative links for future research, with their New Zealand host. The hosts represent all of the New Zealand Crown Research Institutes, some of the countries leading universities in this field, together with one of the leading multinational dairy companies. We invite you to click on the link below to discover more information about the study visits and encourage you to consider this opportunity for both the development of your researchers and also as a means of building strong collaborative links for future research. http://www.foodfrenz.com/act3.htm
