ISAE UK/Ireland Regional Meeting - Edinburgh

ISAE is the leading professional association for people interested in the behaviour and welfare of confined or domesticated animals, including companion, farm, zoo and managed wild animal species. The 2022 UK/Ireland regional meeting of the ISAE will be held in  the UK at the Edinburgh training and conference venue in Edinburgh on the 30th of June 2022.  Attendance at the meeting is a unique networking opportunity for academics, industry representatives, and anyone with a professional interest in animal behaviour and welfare, and will showcase the most up to date applied animal behaviour research in Ireland and the UK. 

In addition, we are collaborating with UFAW by hosting a joint workshop 'Improving Study Design in Animal Welfare Research', which will be chaired by Prof. Melissa Bateson. The workshop will be held on the afternoon of 29th of June, so the day before the main regional ISAE meeting. Tickets for this event are sold separately.

The meeting will be of special interest to:

• Researchers and lecturers working in the area of animal behaviour and welfare
• Individuals and organisations involved in public policy formation and development
• Agricultural and animal care advisors
• Industry personnel who are involved in developing tools to modify and/or record animal behaviour
• Postgraduate students (we especially would like to provide young researchers with an opportunity to present their work)
• Undergraduate students with an interest in animal behaviour 
• Representatives from animal welfare organisations

Tickets are available at two rates, student and non-student. If you purchase a student ticket, please send proof of student status (e.g. a copy of your student card, registration status etc.) to your regional secretaries at: [email protected]
