It is with great sadness that we announce that Frans de Waal, a State of the Art Speaker of ICP 2024 has passed away at the age of 75. His work has spanned many decades and inspired many future scientists in various fields. De Waal himself was a primatologist and author of numerous books such as Chimpanzee Politics and Our Inner Ape. His research specialised at primate social behaviour and processes connected with it – conflict resolution, cooperation etc. Our condolences go to his family and colleagues.
