Hello Ecologgers,
I wonder if perhaps you fine folk could help me out with my graduate school
search. I am soliciting names of faculty that I can contact who may be willing
to advise me in my future PhD research. I want to do a project addressing the
topic of ecological influences on cooperative behavior. I am focused on
animals where individuals can alter their behavior to help others or not (i.e.
social mammals such as primates, but other herd mammals or even birds would
do). The kind of project I am aiming for is field research that will measure
some cooperative behavior (such as supervising the offspring of other
individuals) as a response variable to an ecological constraint (such as food
availability). My strong points are that I graduated from Dartmouth with
honors from the Bio Dept. and have very strong GRE scores, both general and
subject. My less-than-strong area is experience (or lack of same). Please let
me know the names of any researchers you can
think of who may be interested in someone like me and could be a good research
match. Some professors I am already interested in are Jeanne Altmann at
Princeton and Anne Pusey at U of Minnesota. If you are familiar with this area
of study and know people who do research similar to these two, I'd really
appreciate your help!
Thank you,
Ali Krzton
