Hi Christine,

 

I hope you're well! I was wondering if you might be kind enough to circulate the following advertisement for a fully-funded PhD studentship to any relevant students in your Behaviour and Evolution Research group, or anyone who might be interested please?

A fully-funded PhD opportunity is available at the Psychology department at Nottingham Trent University, supervised by Dr. Eithne Kavanagh, Professor Bridget Waller and Dr. Ella McLoughlin (link here; deadline 13th February). We are seeking a student with a keen interest in the evolution of social behaviour. The project will focus on social hierarchies and their associated nonverbal behaviour and health outcomes. Informal enquiries are encouraged and can be directed to eithne.kavanagh@ntu.ac.uk

 

If you could pass this on to anyone interested it would be much appreciated!

Many thanks,

Eithne
