Field work will be conducted at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama (https://stri.si.edu/). Potential students interested in social evolution and with a desire to develop skills in behavioral ecology, physiology, and bioinformatics are encouraged to apply. The position comes with a competitive support package including research and travel funding, salary, tuition waivers, and health insurance.
