Dr. Cooke is a world-renowned fish ecologist, and is currently the Canada Research Chair in Fish Ecology and Conservation Physiology at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. He has over 260 peer reviewed publications in leading fisheries, ecology, conservation, and physiology journals and is on the Editorial Board for Fisheries Research, Reviews in Fish Biology and Fisheries and Endangered Species Research. In 2008 he was awarded the Medal from the Fisheries Society of the British Isles in recognition of his contributions to global fisheries issues at an early stage in his career. His research program is diverse but has a common theme of understanding how fish respond to natural and anthropogenic challenges. His research largely focuses on investigations of catch-and-release science on a variety of species including bonefish and sharks in The Bahamas, sockeye salmon in British Columbia, largemouth bass in Illinois and bluefin tuna in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Beyond more than 40 empirical studies on catch-and-release, Cooke has authored several synthetic papers on catch-and-release science addressing issues such as sub-lethal impacts, fish welfare, as well social sciences and engaging anglers in citizen science.
