Hi everyone, SOCPROG is a series of MATLAB programs written by Hal Whitehead for analyzing data on the social structure, population structure and movements of identified individuals, usually using data from photo-identifications. However, analyzing social structure and using SOCPROG are not straightforward. The SOCPROG workshop plans to provide guidance in these matters, using onscreen real-time analyses of real data. Participants do not need to have experience in using SOCPROG (although this will help). For those who weren't able to attend the SOCPROG workshop in San Diego or if you did and would like a refresher, another SOCPROG workshop will be held in Halifax, Nova Scotia on Wednesday August 15, 2007 at Dalhousie University. The cost is $60.00 Canadian and is being held as part of the 2007 International Ethological Conference which runs from 15 - 23 August 2007. You can attend the SOCPROG workshop even if you don't plan to attend the conference. To register, simply follow the instructions on the SOCPROG workshop website: http://iec2007.psychology.dal.ca/iec2007/Workshop.html If you have any difficulties or require more information, please contact Tonya Wimmer (twimmer@dal.ca).
