European Conference for Behavioural Biology (ECBB) 2026

1-4 September 2026, Cambridge, UK

We are pleased to announce the European Conference for Behavioural Biology (ECBB) 2026 will be taking place from 1-4 September 2026 at ARU in Cambridge.

This event will bring together students, researchers, experts, and professionals to explore the latest discoveries, research, and innovations in behavioural biology, offering a unique opportunity for scientific exchange.

The theme for 2026 is Animal Behaviour in the Anthropocene. This year’s theme invites us to reflect on how human-driven environmental change is shaping animal behaviour across ecosystems.

This conference is supported by the Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour (ASAB) and is the official ASAB Summer Conference for 2026.
