Dear BERGers,
Some of you might be interested: Sarah Kraemer, our PhD student investigating learning strategies in capuchin monkeys, is looking for volunteers. This is a great opportunity to gain some research experience working on a super-interesting project! Details below:
Calling all students interested in animal behaviour and social learning!
I am recruiting multiple volunteer students for assistance in 2 tasks for my PhD project that examines social biases in tufted capuchins. Students may reach out with availability to help in one or both tasks:
Both efforts will require pre-training, to be carried out between mid-to-end of May (foreseeably longer for the long-term endeavor). Both will involve one meeting/work period with me per week, and a few hours of work on the student's own time per week, but will not add up to a part- or full-time job.
This is a great opportunity to be involved in animal behaviour research and gain experience for your own future projects!
If interested, e-mail me at s.b.kraemer@stir.ac.uk.
Capu-cheers!
