**About the Role**

FACEDIFF is a five-year project examining individual differences in facial expressivity and how this is related to social network size and social interaction in humans and Rhesus macaques (_Macaca mulatta_).

You will be supervised by Principal Investigator Professor Bridget Waller and work closely with other members of the team, including Postdoctoral Research Fellows, PhD students and other Research Assistants.
