Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain

We are seeking a highly motivated student (M.Sc. level) to work with an international team of consolidated scientists on an experimental project to determine the effects of imprinting and early social bonding on the development of social behaviour in pullets. The project will investigate impact of social conditions during early stages of development to determine the long-term consequences on the social interactions of pullets.
