Theoretical Biology & Bioinformatics
Formal models in ecology, spatial pattern formation, (molecular) evolution, immunology, and ethology. Formalisms range from mathematical models, cellular automata, genetic algorithms, to discrete-event individual-oriented simulation models. Bioinformatic approach typically involves spatial, multi-leveled models with many interacting entities whose behavior is determined by local information.

Extractions: Utrecht University Faculty of Science department of Biology Research ... Agenda Our aim: Fundamental research in Theoretical Biology and Bioinformatics. Biotic systems are complex dynamic information processing systems in which processes on many space and time scales interact. Our aim is to understand them as such. To this end we develop and analyze mathematical/computational models of a broad range of biological systems. In the seventies we coined the term bioinformatics for the study of informatic processes in biotic systems. According to the Oxford English Dictionary this was the first use of the term bioinformatics. The concept provides us with a unified framework for a research area for which a variety of names have now become fashionable, which includes, apart from bioinformatics ss (i.e. data-analysis of e.g. genomic data), the dynamic modeling approaches referred to as "systems biology", "computational life sciences", "computational biology", and which partially overlaps with "complex systems research" and "Artifical Life". Our formalisms range from mathematical models, cellular automata, genetic algorithms, to discrete-event individual-oriented simulation models. The research of our group is part of the Life Sciences and Biocomplexity and the Infection and Immunity focus areas of the Utrecht University.

Česká A Slovenská Etologická Společnost
The Society provides a forum for exchange of knowledge relating to behavior and behavioral problems in farm, companion and free living animals.
http://www.csets.sk/

Extractions: Czech and slovak ethological society Společnost poskytuje fórum pro výměnu vědeckých poznatků a názorů všem svým členům z různých oblastí vědy, zabývajících se chováním živočichů. Pohledy z odlišných zorných úhlů totiž mohou obohatit pochopení zákonitostí. Cílem společnosti je také prohlubovat znalosti o chování v oblasti základní i aplikované etologie, podporovat výzkum a jiné zpusoby obohacování věd o chování a problémech chování zvířat hospodářských, zájmových a volně žijících, a podporovat vzájemné sdílení a propagaci poznatků. Behavior 2011 - This will be the first-ever joint meeting of two international behavior societies: the International Ethological Conference and the Animal Behavior Society. The goal of this meeting is to foster interdisciplinary communication and collaboration among behavioral biologists working in a broad array of disciplines, from around the world.

Best Mailing Lists On The Net
Links to mailing lists on futurism and alternative ways of living.
http://www.ethologic.com/sasha/lists.html

Extractions: Sponsored by Best mailing lists on the Net In an attempt to build bridges between the somewhat isolated islands of wisdom in cyberspace, I have compiled a selected list of about 100 Internet mailing list descriptions, contact addresses and related data that I consider likely to be of interest to any sufficiently intelligent person. These lists discuss frontier scientific, technological and philosophical concepts, futurist philosophy, promote ideas of liberty, economic freedom, various alternative intellectual activities and lifestyles, advanced educational methods, etc. I recommend you to look into the full ASCII version of this guide for more detailed descriptions of publicly advertised interesting mailing lists as well as info on many lists that are not publicly advertised. [Some of the information in the ascii guide may be no longer valid, as I haven't updated it in a while] Here, you can directly access information on the following mailing lists: aichess - AI chess project mailing list Albionic research mailing list AltInst mailing list Altinst List archives ... Breakthrough - a newsletter on important developments in science and technology Boston-raves mailing list Collaborative information filtering mailing list . See also list archive Complexity and Management mailing list Cybercultur mailing lists Cybermind mailing list ... Diplomacy mailing list - you can play it too!

Extractions: Note: I also include a few organizations here which are strong or extremist or just interesting enough to know; please do not consider every entry here as my endorsement. Extropy Institute - the citadel of transhumanist thought. If you think your life may be worth extending, LEF may give you some advice on the latest life extension research, products and therapies. World Future Society (Greater Boston Chapter) WFS is the largest organization of professional futurists in the world. While not as visionary as Extropy Institute, it is engaged in a number of interesting activities. The Boston Chapter Website has many links of futurist interest. Edge Foundation - except for the Clock, has some interesting people and projects

Peter Dayan
Builds mathematical and computational models of neural processing, with a particular emphasis on representation and learning. The main focus is on reinforcement learning and unsupervised learning, covering the ways that animals come to choose appropriate actions in the face of rewards and punishments, and the ways and goals of the process by which they come to form neural representations of the world. The models are informed and constrained by neurobiological, psychological and ethological data.
