In addition to his ASAB work, Andy is a passionate and excellent teacher/supervisor (for which heโ€™s won awards!). Most recently, he was invited to give a great plenary at #ECBB2026 โ€“ a perfect ending to his tenure as exec editor of #AnimalBehaviourJournal. @andyradford.bsky.social you'll be missed!

Andy was also part of the move to online-only publishing for sustainability, and added requirements for mandatory data and code provision, in order to improve reproducibility. He also negotiated the new 7-year publishing contract that underpins the vast majority of ASAB funding for its members $$$

Before becoming executive editor and council trustee, Andy was a consulting editor for the journal and an ordinary ASAB council member. As exec editor, he has been involved in making several significant changes: There are now paper prizes to support students, ECRs and low-middle income countries.

Andy is a professor at the University of Bristol, where he studies social behaviour and communication, and runs the long-term dwarf mongoose research project. A lot of his work has focused on the use of vocalisations for cooperation/conflict, as well as the impacts of anthropogenic noise.

In 2021 @andyradford.bsky.social became the ASAB executive editor of the #AnimalBehaviourJournal, a joint venture with our sister society @animbehsociety.bsky.social With their exec editor & a great support team, Andy has worked hard to bring out an issue every month - a real undertaking! #MeetASAB
