PhD in Biology

We are seeking a highly motivated, independent, and inquisitive student who can take initiative and work with animals. A good undergraduate degree in biology, psychology or behavioural science is required, and a Masters would be preferred. Previous experience with behavioural research, data collection, or coding is desirable but not essential. A genuine enthusiasm for animal cognition, animal behaviour, welfare is essential.

Please see our applications page for full guidance and eligibility criteria.
