The plenary speaker line-up for #isae2025 🙌🏼 Can’t wait!

🚀 Kicking off the LIFT Satellite Workshop in Utrecht - just ahead of #ISAE2025! Our chair, Margit Bak Jensen, opens the day with a warm welcome and overview of the COST Action.

Looking forward to a day of productive discussions and networking!

Getting all pumped up for my plenary talk at this year's #ISAE2025! It won't reinvent the wheel, but I am certain it will entertain the crowd! 😅

Kicked off #isae2025 @applied-ethology.bsky.social with a great talk on why we should care about insect welfare from @beebytes.bsky.social, more into protocol behaviour in pigs!

Exciting to learn about insect welfare from @beebytes.bsky.social, opening #ISAE2025 with the Wood-Gush lecture. Astounding figures and information @applied-ethology.bsky.social
