About the Project

Mating systems and parental care are some of the most variable social traits. The project uses vertebrate diversity to understand the evolution of breeding system variation in fishes, amphibians, reptiles birds and mammals.

We are looking for a quantitative-minded student interested to understand social evolution. The student will join an international research group of evolutionary biologists, ecologists and behavioural biologists to understand reproductive strategies. The student will be trained in quantitative biology including data analyses, phylogenetic analyses of ecology, behaviour and life history. The project offers an unparalleled opportunity for a bright student intended to establish a career in evolutionary biology by using extensive databases. Follow-up projects will focus on using the databases for biodiversity conservation and climate change. Applicants need to have a master degree in ecology, evolutionary biology, biometry or related field.

The studentship will be based at the University of Debrecen and will involve visits to leading research institutions in the UK, Holland and Germany. Debrecen is the second largest city in Hungary with a large multi-national student community. Debrecen is the cultural centre of eastern Hungary with prioximity to UNESCO protected area, the Hortobágy National Park.

In short, we seek a bright and motivated students from any country with interest in evolution, behaviour and conservation. Please send us your CV and letter of motivation to bi.vagi@gmail.com
