Welcome all to the The Nordic Evolutionary Psychology Meeting, which will be held at Lammi Biological Station in Lammi, Finland this year!

The purpose of the meeting is to bring together researchers and students from diverse backgrounds unified by interest in explaining behaviour in the light of evolution.

Our venue will be Lammi Biological Station, which is located just 125 km north of Helsinki  on the shore of Lake Pääjärvi. The Station is a great venue for the meeting with a capacity of about 120 people, where we will be able to have the scientific and social program as well as lodging and meals all in the same place. Accommodation in two person rooms, and meals at the Station are relatively inexpensive.

There is no congress fee for the meeting itself  and the aim is to make it affordable for all interested participants. We warmly recommend it to both graduate and postgraduate students in addition to researchers.
