Plazas de master o doctorado con aves en Canadá

PhD/MSc positions. Fall 2018 or Spring 2019. Diet or exercise? How do birds cope with transitions in workload associated with parental care or fledging? I am looking for multiple MSc or PhD  students to join my lab as part of my long-term NSERC-funded work on avian evolutionary

physiology.

We work within a strong life-history framework: several

potential projects are available integrating behaviour and physiology

of exercise or training during parental care and post-fledging activity

to explain costs of reproduction ans survival. This work will take

advantage of an automated radio-tracking system we set up in 2015 for

European starlings, and/or a training system for captive-breeding zebra

finches. General requirements: Strong academic background (GPA >3.0 and

>3.5 for PhD), a commitment to graduate school and basic research, and

a genuine interest in integrating evolutionary biology with behaviour,

and physiology. Experience with radio-telemetry, blood sampling, banding,

GIS or physiological analysis an advantage but not essential. This work

will be based at SFU with fieldwork in the Lower Mainland, BC.

Bagre es un género de peces actinopeterigios marinos y de agua dulce, distribuidos por costas y ríos de América, tanto en la costa este del océano Pacífico como en la costa oeste del océano Atlántico

Existen cuatro especies reconocidas en este género:

Bagre bagre (Linnaeus, 1766)

Bagre marinus (Mitchill, 1815)

Bagre panamensis (Gill, 1863)

Bagre pinnimaculatus (Steindachner, 1876)
