Steven J. Cooke is a Canadian biologist specializing in ecology and conservation physiology of fish. He is best known for his integrative work on fish physiology, behaviour, ecology, and human-dimensions to understand and solve complex environmental problems. He currently is a Canada Research Professor in Environmental Science and Biology at Carleton University and the Editor-in-Chief of the scientific journal Conservation Physiology.

Education

Cooke started his postsecondary education at the

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (1999-2002) with David Philipp and David Wahl where he studied the physiological diversity of sunfish in the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences.[3][4]

Career

Following his Ph.D., Dr. Cooke accepted a post-doctoral position (with support from NSERC and the Killam Trust) with the Centre for Applied Conservation Research at the

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.[1]
In 2014 he was appointed as Director of the Institute of Environmental Science at Carleton University which became the Institute of Environmental and Interdisciplinary Science in July 2018. Cooke held a Tier II Canada Research Chair from 2009 to 2019.

In addition to his academic activities, Dr. Cooke is the Editor-in-Chief of the Oxford University Press’s journal Conservation Physiology Oxford Journals | Life Sciences | Conservation Physiology on behalf of the Society for Experimental Biology.[9] He also serves as an editor for Journal of Animal Biotelemetry [10] and Environmental Biology of Fishes and is on the editorial board for Fisheries Research.[11] In 2009 he published and edited a book (with Dr. David Philipp) on the biology and management of centrarchid fishes titled Centrarchid Fishes: Diversity, Biology and Conservation.[12] He was the president of the Canadian Aquatic Resources Section of the American Fisheries Society[13] from 2011-2013 and is the Chair of the Sea Lamprey Research Board of the Great Lakes Fishery Commission (2013).[14] He is Past President of the International Section of the American Fisheries Society (served as president from 2017-2018). He was previously involved in leadership roles with NSERC HydroNet [3] and Ocean Tracking Network.[15] In 2013 he delivered a TEDx talk on the future of recreational fishing.[16] He is a Science Ambassador for Keepemwet Fishing. Cooke launched the Canadian Centre for Evidence-Based Conservation and Environmental Management in 2014 - an affiliate of the UK-based Collaboration for Environmental Evidence. In 2014 Cooke conceived and launched the "Legends in Canadian Fisheries Science and Management" initiative to recognize luminaries in Canadian fisheries through the Canadian Aquatic Resources Section of the American Fisheries Society.As of November 2019, Dr. Cooke has published over 800 peer-reviewed scientific papers.

Notable awards and honours

In 2005, Cooke received the Award of Excellence from the Fisheries Management Section of the American Fisheries Society (AFS) jointly with Drs. Scott Hinch, Tony Farrell and Mike Healey.

NSERC E.W.R. Steacie Memorial Fellow.[22] Cooke is also a "Research Fellow" for Bonefish and Tarpon Trust. In 2015 Cooke was elected into the Royal Society of Canada's College of New Scholars, Artists, and Scientists and serves as the Secretary and member of the RSC's Council (2017-2019). In 2017 Cooke became a Fellow of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society and in 2018 he was elected as a Fellow of the American Fisheries Society.[23] In 2018 he was named the TD Walter Bean Visiting Professor in the Environment at the University of Waterloo.[24] In 2019 he was named the Robin Welcomme Fellow in Inland Fisheries at Michigan State University
.

Research contributions

Cooke's research has contributed to many aspects of the biology, conservation and management of fish and aquatic ecosystems. One area of focus includes reproduction and fitness physiology primarily using

FAO technical guidelines for recreational fisheries in 2012.[40] Cooke’s research has illuminated problems in recreational fishing and possible development of effective countermeasures to conserve fisheries and his work has helped to refine management strategies in Canada[41] and the USA.[42] Cooke has also been involved in efforts to raise the profile of the threats facing freshwater fish[43] and freshwater biodiversity more broadly.[44] He reflects on his successes and failures in generating management- and policy-relevant science in a reflective essay.[45]
