This is the official Bluesky account for the 17th edition of the Ecology & Behaviour conference to be held at the CEFE Montpellier from 11-15 August 2025! #ecobhvr2025
- The Ecology & Behaviour conference is still looking for a new French organizing team for a future edition. An inclusive, international & free conference run by early-career researchers, let’s keep it alive! 👉 Get in touch with us and check the website: ecobhvr2025.sciencesconf.org
- 🚨 Looking for motivated people to take over the organisation of the Ecology & Behaviour Conference 🚨 By young researchers, for young researchers: inclusive, international and free of charge A rewarding adventure: we’ll be happy to guide and support the next team. Interested? Reach out soon!
- The 17th edition of Ecology & Behaviour is already over… Huge thanks to all the participants, you made this week exceptional! Big thanks as well to all our partners who made it possible to keep this event inclusive, and especially to the CEFE🌿 for giving us the opportunity to host it!
