We are looking for Postdocs who are interested in forming a joined group to submit a collaborative research grant at the Max Planck Institute for January 15, 2020.More info at: https://livingingroups.org

In summary: We have been running a long-term research project (20 years) focussing on the social structure and behaviour of Risso’s dolphins (Grampus griseus) in the Azores. We are specifically interested in male alliance formation and intra-alliance social dynamics of this species, but also in life history of females, previously collected kinship data, (also having isotopes and fatty acid samples in stock and available). Another area of interest is the set-up of a new research project on (individual) Risso’s dolphin acoustics.

Essentially, we are looking for researchers interested in working with large, long-term databases, who have relevant statistical knowledge, crucial for future analysis.
