Julia Myatt
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher on the CARDyAL project (funded by EPSRC) investigating the movement and behaviour of social mammals. Focusing on fine-grained group movement patterns and social interactions in hefted sheep, I will be undertaking social network analyses and modelling detailed movement patterns based on GPS data. I am also researching pack hunting behaviour in dogs (both domestic and wild) in order to understand more about their cooperative actions, in addition to their locomotor abilties to out-manoeuvre prey.
Abigail Nunn
Olga Panagiotopoulou
BBSRC Postdoctoral Named Researcher on comparative locomotor mechanics, and Marie-Curie Research Fellow on jaw biomechanics at the RVC; and Visiting Research Fellow on jaw biomechanics, Department of Organismal Biology and Anatomy, University of Chicago, USA.

Ludovic Pelligand
Stephanie Pierce
Stephanie is a NERC Postdoctoral Researcher in John Hutchinson's lab examining the locomotion potential of early tetrapods.
Dammy Pinheiro
Steven Portugal
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher on the CARDyAL project (funded by EPSRC) investigating flocking behaviour in birds. In particular, the potential aerodynamic benefits of 'Vee' flight formation in migrating birds such as geese and ibis.
