Exploring vocal learning behaviour in bats with a view to understanding human speech
Research Group:
Centre for Biological Diversity
A PhD student is sought to investigate the social and vocal behaviour of bats. In speech acquisition, humans must employ vocal learning, making this a key trait for the understanding of the biology and evolution of speech and language. Read more
Integrative multi-omics to identify epigenetic regulators of alternative splicing in animal models of disease and behaviour
The molecular process that leads to multiple mRNA transcripts being produced from the same segment of DNA (aka gene) is known as alternative splicing (AS). Read more

Choosing to persist: sexual section and conservation in the wild
Research Group:
Centre for Evolutionary Biology
The prevailing story of sexual selection, in which the sexes either compete for or choose the other sex, has been one of costly and detrimental extravagance. Read more
