Members of the Zoological Society of Japan
My name is Yusuke Notomi from the University of Tokyo.
In May of this year, we will hold a workshop at the University of Tokyo focusing mainly on elucidating the behavioral mechanisms of animals.
We have invited a truly prestigious group of guest speakers. Please enjoy this supreme collaboration that can only be experienced here.
We also welcome poster presentations from general participants through public invitation. Please check the website for details.
I would appreciate it if you could also share this with everyone around you.
☆Announcement of the 1st System Behavioral Science Research Meeting☆
It is no exaggeration to say that analyzing animal behavior is a foundational and essential method in behavioral science. In recent years, advances in machine learning and engineering have dramatically diversified image analysis methods in behavioral science. At the same time, questions arise regarding which method to choose and how other researchers are solving problems in various situations. Therefore, the 1st Systems Behavioral Science Workshop has decided to host a large-scale event under the theme of "Image Analysis and Behavioral Science," focusing on a wide range of behavioral research using image analysis.

The 1st Systems Ethology Research Meeting: Image Analysis and Ethology
Date and Venue: May 30 (Fri) and 31 (Sat), 2025, University of Tokyo, Komaba I Campus
Theme: Research meeting on animal behavior centered on image analysis, such as behavior tracking and classification, VR behavioral intervention, and neural activity imaging
Format: Open call for poster presentations, invited lectures (Travel grants available for young researchers)
After the first day of the social gathering, a light meal will be served in the venue. Let's chat while looking at the posters.
