About this event

The Jeremy Coller Foundation and Tel Aviv University are thrilled to announce the finalists for the first annual Coller Dolittle Challenge, a ground-breaking initiative aimed at achieving interspecies two-way communication. This year's finalists have made remarkable strides in understanding and interacting with dolphins, nightingales, cuttlefish, and monkeys. During this virtual event, the four shortlisted teams from the USA, Germany, France, and Israel will present their pioneering research to the scientific community and the public. We are also honoured to introduce a guest lecturer, scientist Irene Pepperberg, who will share her fascinating research titled "Studies on the Communicative and Cognitive Abilities of Grey Parrots." Witness the unveiling of cutting-edge technology and innovative approaches that bring us closer to decoding the complex languages of non-human species. Don't miss this opportunity to be part of a historic moment in science and technology. Register now to attend the live announcement of the $100,000 prize winner and celebrate the incredible achievements of these visionary researchers.
