Offre de thèse : MORPHOGENESIS OF SOCIAL INSECT NESTS, ROEHAMPTON UNIVERSITY, LONDON

This is a PhD position fully funded for three years available at the University of Roehampton in London to work on the morphogenesis of social insect nests. Our project involves field data collection (mainly in Australia, through a collaboration with Dr Jerome Buhl and Prof Nathan Lo), analysis of built nests (using micro-CT and other imaging techniques), with a possibility to also develop laboratory experiments.
