Thanks for Kirsty and Annabel for sharing these:

PhD position in evolutionary primatology
This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious PhD student to join the Swiss
National Science Foundation project “EVOPHON: Evolution of Phonetics and
Phonology” (Principle Investigator: Dr. Steven Moran). The successful candidate will
join an interdisciplinary team of researchers working on the evolutionary origins of
language. We aim to shortlist applicants with an MSc or MA degree, a relevant training
background (evolutionary biology, primatology, phonetics, linguistics, or similar),
strong interest in animal communication and language, and (advanced) data analysis
and scientific writing skills. Previous experience with (bio-) acoustic analysis is a
strong plus. Deadline 28 May.
