Members of the Zoological Society of Japan

I am Yusuke Notomi from the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Tokyo.
We are pleased to announce the hybrid public seminar "Haruna Fujioka – The 48th Komaba Seminar on Behavioral Evolutionary Ecology," which will be held on Friday, November 1, 2024.

Dr. Fujioka usually conducts research in behavioral ecology, focusing on topics such as circadian rhythms and liquid transport in ants. This time, we are told we will hear a slightly different talk than usual. Although the target themes and animals are different, it seems that some of the methods used are common to the ant research he has conducted so far. I am also curious about the differences compared to ants.
(By the way, Professor Fujioka previously planned seminars as the coordinator for the Komaba classroom.)
This is an open seminar, so everyone is welcome to attend.

Registration deadline: October 31, 2024

We would appreciate it if you could also share this information with those around you.

Please note that the following week on Saturday, November 9, we will hold the 49th Komaba Classroom for Behavioral Evolution and Ecology: "The 1st Systems Behavioral Biology Special Seminar." We are honored to invite three distinguished guest speakers—Prof. Taku Nishimori from Meiji University, Prof. Tomoko Sakiyama from Soka University, and Prof. Toru Moriyama from Shinshu University—for a large-scale public seminar (held in a hybrid format) focusing on elucidating behavioral mechanisms (systems). We hope you will consider attending this as well.
