We are excited to announce that #Behaviour2027 (XXXIX International Ethological Congress) will be taking place in Vienna, Austria! We are looking forward to having you all join us next year from August 23-27. Please follow and share!

Males that experience more aggressive encounters achieve greater reproductive success in the highly territorial fly Drosophila prolongata. Congratulations to Gayatri Raina on presenting these exciting findings in her first talk an international conference (and in a huge auditorium!). #ISBE2026

Eva Ringler’s inspiring talk on frog parental care and the challenges of academic research at #ISBE2026 👇 🐸

Tadpole backpacks? Not onlu this season's *hottest* fashion accessory, but Eva Ringler shows this is also a great system for studying the behavioral decisions involved in parental care! Day 2 of ISBE begins!
