A PhD position funded through Spain's FPU 2026 programme will study 'cognitive buffering' — how animals' cognitive abilities help them survive in environments rapidly altered by human activity. The project spans levels from neurons to populations, asking why some species decline while others persist as habitats change. It is drawing attention among ecologists and biologists discussing how behaviour and brain function shape species' responses to global change.
