We are pleased to welcome Katrina Brock from Max Planck Society to present an R package for analyzing animal movement data. Join us to explore how R can be put to work in animal behaviour research. **Travel Paths: Bridging the usability gap in open source animal movement algorithms** The behavior ecology literature offers a rich library of approaches for finding patterns in animal movement data. While many of the biologists developing these algorithms publish their code, it is rarely optimized for reuse. Even well-designed packages with similar workflows have different interfaces that potential users need to learn one by one. By wrapping these algorithms in a standardized interface, the “Travel Paths” framework reduces researcher toil. Instead of digging through scripts and learning disparate conventions, they can run many methods with just a few functions. The framework is composed of two packages: the trackframe package provides a flexible and interoperable format for input data while the travelpaths package, taking inspiration from parsnip, offers the interface for movement models. In this talk, we’ll discuss how we designed this framework and how it can be leveraged to enable even novice R users to apply a variety of methods to their animal movement data.

We would like to share the upcoming event from the [Vienna<-R](https://www.meetup.com/viennar/) meetup group: [Travel Paths: Animal movement algorithms](https://www.meetup.com/viennar/events/314973700/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events), where Katrina Brock from Max Planck Society presents an R package for analyzing animal movement data and shares how R can be put to work in animal behaviour research. **Details**: The behavior ecology literature offers a rich library of approaches for finding patterns in animal movement data.

☕ **AI Breakfast: Real Talk, No Slides** We’re hosting the **AI Breakfast Vienna** — a casual, high-signal meetup for the AI community. Whether you’re a researcher, an AI engineer," a founder, or a policy innovator, this is your space to connect. We’re breaking down the silos between research, product, and engineering to spark real discussions before the workday even begins. * **When:** June 5th, 8:30 AM * **Where:** Cafe Museum - Literatursalon - Table reserved under **"Cristian Hofmann / AI Austria"** * **Hosts:** Cristian, Amin, and Ruben * **Cost:** Order breakfast at your own expense Space is limited! 👉 **RSVP only if you’re 100% sure you can make it.**

Was gibt es Faszinierenderes, als die menschliche Psychologie zu entschlüsseln und zu lernen, wie man Menschen liest? Zu erkennen, was ein Blick, ein Zögern oder eine minimale Veränderung in der Stimme bedeutet, ist eine echte Superkraft. Und das Beste daran: Am schnellsten und intensivsten lernen wir, wenn es richtig viel Spaß macht, nämlich mitten im Spiel, beim gemeinsamen Lachen und Ausprobieren! Genau darum dreht sich diese Gesellschaftsspielerunde! Hier stehen **Secret Identity & Social Deduction Games** im Mittelpunkt. Wir machen einen eigenen Spiele-Tisch für Social Deduction Games beim öffentlichen Spieleabend in der Pauluskirche. Das Spieleabend ist gratis. Da ich begrenzte Plätze am Spieletisch habe, muss ich das Event begrenzen. ### Was sind Social Deduction Games? Bei diesen Spielen bekommt jeder eine geheime Identität zugewiesen. Die Gruppe ist aufgeteilt: Die meisten spielen ehrlich, doch einige wenige sind die geheimen Saboteure (bekannt aus Klassikern wie *Werwölfe*). Das Ziel? Durch Diskussionen, Bluffen, gezieltes Fragen und Beobachtung der Körpersprache herauszufinden, wer die Wahrheit sagt und wer lügt. Ergänzend werden an diesem Abend eventuell auch ein paar normale Deduktionsspiele auf den Tisch kommen, bei denen es statt um das Lesen von Menschen eher um messerscharfe Logik, das Kombinieren von Hinweisen und das Lösen von Rätseln geht. ### Das erwartet dich: * **Reine Praxis statt grauer Theorie:** Keine komplizierten Regelstudien vorab – alle Spiele werden vor Ort direkt und einfach erklärt. * **Spielerische Selbsterfahrung:** Teste deine Intuition, schärfe deine Menschenkenntnis und experimentiere mit deiner eigenen Überzeugungskraft. * **Jede Menge Spaß:** Erlebe einen dynamischen Abend voller Nervenkitzel, Wendungen und guter Gespräche. Egal, ob Profi-Bluffer oder absoluter Neuling – komm vorbei, spiel mit und lerne die Kunst des Menschenlesens von einer ganz neuen Seite kennen! \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- What could be more fascinating than decoding human psychology and learning how to read people? Recognizing what a look, a hesitation, or a subtle shift in someone's voice means is a true superpower. And the best part: we learn fastest and most intensely when we are having real fun—right in the middle of a game, laughing and experimenting together! That is exactly what this board game round is all about! The main focus here is on Secret Identity & Social Deduction Games. We are setting up a dedicated table for Social Deduction Games at the public board game night in the Pauluskirche. The board game night itself is free of charge. Since spots at our gaming table are limited, I have to limit the capacity for this event. **What are Social Deduction Games?** In these games, everyone is assigned a secret identity. The group is divided: most play honestly, but a select few are secret saboteurs (as seen in classics like Werewolves). The goal? To find out who is telling the truth and who is lying through discussions, bluffing, targeted questioning, and observing body language. In addition, we might also bring a few standard deduction games to the table, which focus on razor-sharp logic, combining clues, and solving puzzles rather than reading people. **What to expect:** Pure practice instead of dry theory: No complicated rulebooks to study beforehand—all games will be explained directly and simply on-site. Playful self-discovery: Test your intuition, sharpen your people skills, and experiment with your own power of persuasion. Tons of fun: Experience a dynamic evening full of thrills, twists, and great conversations. Whether you are a master bluffer or an absolute beginner—come by, play along, and learn the art of reading people from a whole new perspective!

Tango Argentino ist eine improvisierte Tanzform, in der wir drei Schlüsselelemente entwickeln: Umarmung, das richtige Gehen und Musikalität. ## KURSE Sonntags von 17:00 bis 18:00 Uhr. In dieser Einheit zeigen wir Übungen in der die Wahrnehmung der Körperachse geweckt und spürbar gemacht wird, wie man durch die Umarmung in Kontakt mit dem Partner treten kann, und wie die Musik und unsere Wahrnehmung von Rhythmus zu einem lebendigen Ganzen verschmelzen. Anschließend kommen alle Teilnehmer\*innen in Bewegung um den Tango selbst zu spüren und zu experimentieren. #### ## Geführte PRACTICA Sonntags von 18:00 bis 20:00 Uhr. Den Sonntagabend lassen wir mit einer Tango Practica ausklingen mit Beispielen von den verschieden Musiktypen, zu denen wir Tango Argentino tanzen: Tango, Walz, Milonga und Nontango.

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided!
