22.02.2023: Joint meeting of the BfR and the Ethological Society

22.-24.02.2023

Joint meeting of the BfR and the Ethological Society

The Ethological Society (https://www.etho-ges.de) is a non-profit association that supports behavioural biology research in science and education. Behavioural research involves animal experimentation; a topic that is increasingly in the social discourse in its full scope and is mandated by the German Center for the Protection of Laboratory Animals (Bf3R, https://www.bf3r.de) within the framework of the BfR law. Therefore, this year the meeting will be jointly organised by the BfR and the Ethological Society.
