Education

Perrins was educated at Charterhouse School and Queen Mary College[1] where he was awarded a Bachelor of Science degree in Zoology in 1957.[1] He completed his postgraduate study and research at the University of Oxford where he was awarded a Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1963 for research on brood size in tits supervised by David Lack.[5]

Research and career

Perrins research interests are in the population dynamics and breeding biology of birds, particularly tits (Paridae),[5][6] mute swans[7][8] and seabirds on Skomer and Skokholm.[3][9][10] He investigated animal lead poisoning of swans from lead shot.[9] He is renowned for his work on avian population ecology and, in particular, reproductive rates. He has made a number of important contributions to the long-term study of the great tit at Wytham Woods[11] — an area of mixed woodland established in 1947 by evolutionary biologist David Lack – one of the most famous studies in population ecology.[7]

He was the first to discover that avian clutch size – the number of eggs laid in a single nesting – in great tits has a remarkably high heritability and that the likelihood of the survival of young birds can be traced back to nutrition in the nest.[7] Perrins also demonstrated that females lay a clutch of an appropriate size for their ability to feed.[7][12] He supervised several successful DPhil students at Oxford including Matt Ridley[13] and Tim Birkhead.[14]

According to Scopus,[15] {{as of|2016}} his most cited journal articles have been published in Ibis,[16][17] Nature,[18] Science[6] and the Journal of Animal Ecology.[19]
