Join Us!
If you are interested in joining the group as a PhD student, post-doc or volunteer, please send me an email.
PhD students & Post-Docs
The main focus in the group is currently on jackdaws and humans but I am open to interesting ideas for work on other study systems. Prospective students and post-docs should attach a CV and a brief cover letter outlining their research interests.
I welcome applications from prospective post-docs at any time, though please note that I am unable to provide funding. I am very happy to provide help and guidance should you wish to apply for fellowships from the BBSRC, NERC, Royal Society, Marie Curie, the Leverhulme Trust or other bodies. Information about applying for independent fellowships is here.
PhD opportunities will be advertised on this website, FindaPhD.com and the University of Exeter website.
Volunteers
If you would like to help with data collection at the Cornish Jackdaw Project, we would love to hear from you. Volunteers are particularly welcome during the busy breeding season, from April to June [Details – Link to PDF advert]. Prospective volunteers to work on meerkats should visit the Kalahari Meerkat Project website for further information.
