Looking forward to this conference!

My thanks also to various mentors along the way especially John Haslett, @tbmurphy.bsky.social, and Simon Myers. Thanks also to my anonymous external assessors, whoever they may be!

Tradeoffs between such considerations exist and this paper uses a bespoke simulation study to quantify them, using realistic and relevant parameter settings. We think it will be of huge benefit to ecologists who wish to study social interactions of wild animal populations.

During a research visit to Zurich with Damien a related question arose: in order to get enough data how should a study be designed? Should the researchers follow a few animals for a long time or many animals for a shorter time? How often per day should locations be recorded?

There are many challenges in monitoring wild animals and Prabhleen's PhD focussed on statistical investigations into how much data is needed to infer an accurate picture of a social network.

Ah nuts... down with a crash

Yes! I remember that's how he beat Mr Freeze at least once. Who despite having a PhD isn't referred to as Dr.
