The summer school includes an initial statistical seminar at the University of Potsdam and a retreat working week at Gülpe. The official programme will be preceded by an informal get together on Sunday evening. Participants are required to bring their own modern or historical data sets to be analysed during the retreat. They are also expected to publish their results after the event.
The number of participants is limited to 12. The application deadline is 15 April 2023. Get more information from the summer school invitation.

The Auxological Society is starting their own journal with the title „Human Biology and Public Health„. Its purpose is to bridge the gap between the medical/clinical perspectives of public health and the population-based perspectives of human biology. The focus is on how the human species evolved, how individual humans change over the lifespan (growth, maturation and development), how humans adapt to environment and external stressors, and how human biology and culture interact to shape the wide range of normal variation in the biology and behavior of the human species.
Among the journal editors are Christiane Scheffler and Michael Hermanussen, both members of the Society for Anthropology (Gesellschaft für Anthropologie, GfA) and of its workgroup „Netzwerk Lebendanthropologie“ (NeLa) connecting scientists researching living populations.
The first issue of Human Biology and Public Health is still to appear. Biological anthropologists in general and GfA members in particular are invited to submit contributions within the journal’s scope. Get more information from the journal website.

Die Arbeitsgemeinschaften Genderforschung, Prävention und Anthropologie, Humanethologie und Evolutionäre Pädagogik der Gesellschaft für Anthropologie (GfA) haben sich zum Netzwerk Lebend-Anthropologie (NeLA) zusammengeschlossen. Damit unterstreichen sie ihr gemeinsames Ziel, die Biologie und das kulturelle Verhalten heute lebender Menschen zu erforschen und eröffnen neue Perspektiven der Zusammenarbeit, sowohl untereinander als auch im weiteren fachlichen Umfeld.
In einem Konzeptpapier stellt sich das NeLA nun der Öffentlichkeit vor. Das Dokument kann hier heruntergeladen werden:
Am 20./21.04.2018 treffen sich die Mitglieder der GfA Arbeitsgemeinschaften Evolutionäre Pädagogik, Genderstudies, Humanethologie und Prävention gemeinsam im Max-Planck-Institut für Ornithologie in Seewiesen (Deutschland), zu Gast bei der Gruppe Humanethologie. Schwerpunkt der Zusammenkunft ist die Auslotung gemeinsamer Ziele, Ausrichtungen und Aktivitäten dieser Arbeitsgruppen, welche sich alle der Lebendanthropologie verbunden fühlen, also der Forschung an lebenden menschlichen Populationen.
Weitere Informationen zum Treffen können bei den Sprecherinnen und Sprechern der teilnehmenden Arbeitsgruppen erfragt werden.
