PhD Topics | I am happy to supervise PhDs on a range of topics related to invertebrate behaviour and ecology. Currently I am supervising projects on nutritional ecology of solitary bees, and the macroevolution of insect parental care and life history, but am always open to creative, interesting suggestions. I do not currently have a funded position to offer, though, so we would have to work together to obtain funding. |
