The 33rd annual Conference on Comparative Cognition (CO3) will be held on April 15-18, 2026, in Montréal, QC, Canada. Abstract submission closes December 12!
We are a nonprofit scientific society dedicated to gaining a broad scientific understanding of the nature
and evolution of cognition in human and nonhuman animals.
Our journal, Comparative Cognition & Behavior Reviews, publishes review articles on topics in comparative cognition,
animal cognition, and animal behavior. All articles are open access.
CCS gives out a range of student and faculty awards, most tied to our annual conference.
