DESCRIPTION:In order to survive and reproduce animals need to acquire and 
 respond to information from their environment. The ability of organisms to
  learn\, represent and use temporal information is critical for most major
  cognitive processes and for adaptive behaviour. Examples of these are the
  ability to detect contingency between events\, which is essential to expl
 oit the relation between cause and effect or knowing when to select and pe
 rform the right set of actions at the appropriate time. In a series of exa
 mple studies with mammals\, birds and fish I will show how offering animal
 s choices\, under systematic variations of their environment’s temporal 
 contingencies\, while looking at their responses and/or movement profiles\
 , can provide unexplored opportunities to investigate behaviour and tap in
 to animals’ cognitive capabilities.\nSpeakers:\nDr Tiago Monteiro (Unive
 rsity of Vet Med Vienna & Univ of Aveiro\, Portugal)
