Proposal # 0834252: Support for ISBE 2008 conferencePI: Sandra L. VehrencampSupport from the NSF will provide funds for the 12th biennial congress of the International Society for Behavioral Ecology (ISBE) to be held at Cornell University in August 2008. ISBE congresses are exceptionally international in composition and held alternately in the New World and the Old World. ISBE meetings are also unusually gender-balanced, both in participation and in leadership, and the strongly international membership and meeting structure are designed to facilitate interactions between the most well known researchers in the field and the many younger scientists and students from around the world who attend these meetings. ISBE congresses tend to place a greater emphasis on the theoretical bases and processes of behavioral evolution than Animal Behavior Society meetings. The explicit blend of theory and experiment has continued to be the main thread linking members of the Society as topics have evolved and shifted in popularity. Taxonomic coverage is broad, ranging from invertebrates to vertebrates including humans, and primary topics include communication, cooperation and conflict, sexual selection, personality, and foraging strategies. The 2008 ISBE congress has attracted a record number of participants (1020 scientists), the largest conference ever held at Cornell and a challenge for the campus. Press coverage will disseminate the exciting new scientific findings into the news services for worldwide distribution.

提案# 0834252：支持ISBE 2008会议PI：Sandra L.美国国家科学基金会提供的Veedom campSupport将为2008年8月在康奈尔大学举行的国际行为生态学学会（ISBE）第12届两年一次的大会提供资金。 ISBE大会在组成上是非常国际化的，在新世界和旧世界交替举行。ISBE会议在参与和领导方面也是性别平衡的，并且国际成员和会议结构旨在促进该领域最知名的研究人员与来自世界各地参加这些会议的许多年轻科学家和学生之间的互动。ISBE大会倾向于比动物行为学会会议更强调行为进化的理论基础和过程。理论和实验的明确融合仍然是连接协会成员的主线，因为主题已经演变并在流行程度上发生了变化。分类学覆盖面很广，从无脊椎动物到脊椎动物，包括人类，主要主题包括沟通，合作和冲突，性选择，个性和觅食策略。2008年ISBE大会吸引了创纪录的参与者（1020名科学家），这是康奈尔大学有史以来最大的会议，也是对校园的挑战。新闻报道将把令人兴奋的新科学发现传播到新闻服务中，以便在全世界发行。
