Elodie Briefer, Associate Professor, University of Copenhagen, presents “Vocal communication and group dynamics: An overview and case studies in birds and mammals”.
Elodie is a behavioural ecologist, who has been studying animal behaviour and more particularly bioacoustics for over 20 years. She has been working on a wide range of species, from songbirds to ungulates, and has published over 75 peer-reviewed papers. She is an Associate Professor at the University of Copenhagen and the head of the Behavioural Ecology Group. The main focus of her group is the interconnection between acoustic communication, emotions, and social networks, in order to understand how emotions influence communication, how emotions are transmitted between individuals and influence social relationships, and how acoustic communication affects social interactions.
