Within the scope of the project, cutting-edge technology will be integrated with behavioral tests to meticulously explore this cognitive trait in dogs. Data collection will predominantly occur at the Clever Dog Lab of the Messerli Research Institute (unit Comparative Cogniton) situated on the Vetmeduni Vienna campus. The employment is a temporary, full-time position of 3 years according to central collective agreement. Starting date March 1st, 2024 or as agreed. Placement: Vienna, Austria.
