During the last 60 years, the department has made its identity in the frontier areas of Life Sciences and now it has developed into a full- fledged centre of teaching and research in modern biology. The effort of the department in establishing

unique and innovative teaching and training programmes led to its recognition as Centre for Advanced Studies (CAS) in by the University Grants Commission (UGC) since 2005. Department of Zoology has received funds from the UGC under Committee on Strengthening of Infrastructure for Science and Technology (COSIST). The department has also received funds from DST-Government of India under the FIST programme. Situated on an exceptionally beautiful and picturesque campus of the University of Pune, the Department of Zoology offers up-to-date and pertinent post-graduation programme (M.Sc., M. in Zoology with emphasis on fundamentals as well as emerging areas of modern biology. Way back in 1985 the Department of Zoology was given the University Leadership programme. In the same year, the first national programme of M.Sc. in Biotechnology supported by the Department of Biotechnology (then NTBT), Government of India was initiated in Department of Zoology. In the following years, several research establishments like Bioinformatics Centre, National Centre for Cell Sciences (NCCS), Institute of Bioinformatics and Biotechnology (IBB), which are now independent institutions, were housed in the department and their research activities were initiated. Since 2000, department has offered the Credit System for M.Sc. in Zoology course; with emphasis on hands-on practical training of the students and continuous internal assessment. Being an autonomous department of the University, the Department of Zoology also has flexibility in framing courses and conducting tests and examinations.

On behalf of the Department of Zoology, Savitribai Phule Pune University and the Indian Society for Comparative Endocrinology (ISCE), I have the privilege and honour of welcoming you to this international symposium on “Recent Trends in Comparative Endocrinology and Physiology: from Brain to Behaviour (RTCEPBB-2023)” being organized at the Department of Zoology, S. P. Pune University, Pune. RTCEPBB-23 is a unique meeting bringing together the researchers working in the fields of comparative endocrinology, physiology and behaviour. We are sure that the gathering will be an excellent opportunity for students, researchers and faculty to interact with highly competent researchers sharing their recent findings in the theme areas of the symposium.
Comparative Endocrinology and Physiology although have grown enormously as individual disciplines, the challenge is to understand the integration of environmental cues and the hormonal signals in bringing about changes in morphology, physiology and behaviour of different groups of organisms and the researchers participating in the forthcoming symposium will deliberate, discuss and present their views on these aspects of biology. It will be a wonderful opportunity for young minds to participate in such meetings, interact with highly successful and competent researchers across the globe and listen to their experiences, which will help them to shape their career.
