The Department of Ethology, Eötvös Loránd University and Department of Neurobiology and Cognition Research, University of Vienna are organizing the first Canine Science Forum conference which will be held in Budapest, between 5-9 July, 2008. The website of conference is available at http://csf2008.elte.hu
We strongly feel that there is a need for an interdisciplinary forum that brings together scientists with different expertise on Canines who wish to share their research interests with fellow colleagues working on closely or more distantly related fields. This forum aims to substantiate canine biology in order to develop it as a major model of biological investigations.
The main aim of Canine Science Forum is to utilize science as a source of knowledge to promote
* the emergence of an interdisciplinary field of canine biology
* better integration of dogs in our rapidly changing modern society
* the advantageous roles of dogs in our society and thus increase their well-being
* dog science that develops non-invasive research technologies (Good Scientific Practice)
