Conference Overview

Building bridges
Measuring Behavior is the premier interdisciplinary event for scientists and practitioners concerned with human or animal behavior. This unique conference focuses on methods, techniques and tools in behavioral research in the widest sense, from behavioral ecology to neuroscience and from physiology to ergonomics. In doing so, Measuring Behavior responds to a growing need to cross disciplines and create bridges between them; the increasing number of participants in previous meetings shows the great success of this interaction between research fields.

At this conference, all presentations deal with methods and techniques in behavioral research, with special emphasis on the methodological aspects. Newly developed methods and techniques, as well as innovative applications of existing techniques are acceptable subjects for presentations.
