We would like to share news on TheBehaviourForum.org. It is a website that hosts discussions on topics in animal behavioral research and includes forums for discussing many of the same topics that we features here on OpenBehavior. We encourage you to check it out!

Also, if you are aware of similar community site for discussing Arduinos and other microcontrollers, 3D printing, methods for video analysis, or other methods of interest to followers of OpenBehavior, please reach out by email: openbehavior@gmail.com.

Damien Huzard shared this information on the project:

TheBehaviourForum.org is a global platform bringing together scientists, technicians, and animal welfare experts to advance the study of animal behaviour. This free, user-friendly space fosters collaboration, enabling members to share knowledge, troubleshoot experiments, and discuss best practices. Topics range from new research findings and experimental protocols to training, conferences, and job opportunities, all with a strong focus on animal welfare and ethical practices.

Whether you’re interested in home-cage monitoring, machine-learning tools, preclinical models, ethological studies, or behavioural ecology, TheBehaviourForum.org is tailored for anyone passionate about animal behaviour. By connecting researchers across disciplines—spanning laboratory research, ethology, and ecology—the forum enhances collaboration, refines experiments, and drives innovation in behavioural research.
