Welcome!

Welcome!

We welcome you to the Nordic Evolutionary Psychology Meeting, held in Turku, Finland, 13.-14. September 2012. The theme of the meeting is comparative and multidisciplinary approach to evolutionary psychology.

The purpose of the meeting is to bring together researchers and students from diverse backgrounds unified by interest in explaining behaviour in the light of evolution. The speakers include distinguished researchers studying the behaviour of humans, non-human primates and other animals.

The meeting is free of charge for all interested participants and we warmly recommend it to both graduate and postgraduate students in addition to researchers. Registration is required for participation, since we have limited space available.

We look forward to meeting you in Turku. On the behalf of organizers,
Markus Rantala, Katja Valli and Nils Sandman
