"Why smell – the importance of olfaction for human communication"

Abstract: Human interaction is characterized by how we perceive each other and perceive others by the cues and signals they send out. While human research is traditionally concerned with facial expressions, gestures, and voice, body odors are often neglected. Yet body odor is a fascinating cue providing information about the metabolism of others. Animals orientate themselves by the smell of others, and humans also use it to draw conclusions about eating habits, age, menstrual cycle, and even current emotionality.
In these first two lectures of the DZPG Jena series, we will shed light on olfactory communication and its impact on behavior - from animals to humans.

Festveranstaltung zum 25-jährigen Bestehen des Beutenberg-Campus Jena e.V.

Anlässlich des 25-jährigen Bestehens des Beutenberg-Campus Jena e.V. findet im Rahmen der öffentlichen Vortragsreihe „Noble Gespräche“ eine Festveranstaltung im Abbe-Zentrum Beutenberg statt. Bei der Jubiläumsveranstaltung werden Referenten aus Politik, Wissenschaft und der Universität erwartet. Die Jubiläumsveranstaltung bringt die Perspektiven von Wissenschaft, Forschung und Entwicklung sowie Politik und Hochschulen zusammen. Als Vertreter der Carl-Zeiss-Stiftung eröffnet Thüringens Minister für Wirtschaft, Wissenschaft und Digitale Gesellschaft, Wolfgang Tiefensee, das Programm. Anschließend spricht der Vizepräsident der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität für Digitalisierung, Prof. Dr. Christoph Steinbeck, bevor der Vorstandsvorsitzende des Beutenberg-Campus Jena e.V., Prof. Dr. Peter Zipfel, einen kurzen Rückblick auf die vergangenen 25 Jahre werfen und Zukunftsperspektiven aufzeigen wird. Danach wird erstmalig ein Wissenschaftspreis Lebenswissenschaften und Physik  in der neu eingeführten Kategorie „Exzellente interdisziplinäre Kooperation“ verliehen. Mit diesem Preis soll die gute fachübergreifende Zusammenarbeit am Beutenberg Campus gewürdigt und das Zusammenspiel der Institute gefördert werden, mit dem Ziel, durch optimale Synergien Mehrwerte zu schaffen. Musikalisch wird die Festveranstaltung von dem Vokalensemble „Octavians“ begleitet. Höhepunkt der Veranstaltung ist der Festvortrag des renommierten Pflanzenökologen, Prof. Dr. Christian Wirth.  

Hinweis: Die Noblen Gespräche  werden zusätzlich als Livestream angeboten. Eine Anmeldung ist nicht erforderlich. 
Der Vortrag wird auf Englisch gehalten. Der Eintritt ist frei!
