A kutatási téma leírása:
The PhD project will focus on physiological trade-offs and regulation of life history transitions in relation to migratory behavior and breeding in birds. This project combines a variety of approaches from molecular biology to evolutionary biology, and provides opportunities to conduct exciting experiments to understand how birds prepare for and match their phenotype to the long and risky migrations they perform twice a year.
The candidate should have a good command of English (written and verbal). A condition of the application is a Master’s degree (or equivalent) in biology, zoology, veterinary sciences or similar subject. The ideal candidate is willing to work independently and for long hours in the field and has experience with handling birds and/or laboratory techniques.
