Stuart H. Gage is a world leader in complex biological systems analysis. He was honored with a Michigan State University Distinguished Faculty Award in January, 2005. He is Professor of Entomology at Michigan State University where he is director of the Computational Ecology and Visualization Laboratory. Gage also serves on the USDA North Central Regional Committee on the Movement and Dispersal of Biota and the Regional committee on Agricultural Meteorology. His multidisciplinary research program addresses issues of organism distribution in space and time such as gypsy moth invasion into the Midwest, corn phenology across the United States, and patterns of human development in Michigan and elsewhere. His contributions range from modeling the effects of environmental conditions on pest and natural-enemy ecology to examining atmospheric transport of insects and developing cutting-edge computational methods for predicting biological events. As a result of a unique research collaboration with the San Diego Supercomputer Center, he is at the forefront of assessing ecosystem health and predicting future pressures on natural resources. His recent research in environmental acoustics has led to research activities in Australia and New Zealand. See less
