<p class="MsoNormal">Please spread the word (promptly if at all possible, given the deadline) to anyone you think might be interested in applying for this PhD post using citizen science to study birdsong dialects. The supervisors are particularly interested
in recruiting someone with a psychology background, and it seems that they haven’t had quite as many applications as they were expecting.

Subject: Birdsong PhD studentship advertisement<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
My PhD supervisor (Rob Lachlan) is advertising a four-year fully funded studentship, which I think would be a fantastic opportunity for a graduate interested in birds, animal behaviour and/or coding. The project is split in 2, beginning with exploring bird
song learning in the Buntings, and includes funded field trips to Scandinavia and Japan. The second half will be building a citizen science project to record song in Great Tits across the UK, which I will be helping advise with. There's been relatively few
applicants thus far, and the deadline is fast approaching on the 21st March, so please forward this on to anyone you know that may be interested. Though the application blurb does state psychology as a desired degree, it is very much suited for a graduate
of biology, ecology or something similar. <br>
<br>
I have attached further details, and feel free to contact myself or <a href="mailto:Robert.Lachlan@rhul.ac.uk" target="_blank">
Robert.Lachlan@rhul.ac.uk</a> for any more information. <br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
Joe <br>
