Jens Jacob (Edited By) Dr. Jens Jacob studied ecology and zoology in Jena, Germany and Miami, FL, USA. His scientific focus is on applied rodent research. Following positions at CSIRO Wildlife Research and the Pest Animal Cooperative Research Centre (Australia), he became the leader of the Rodent Research Group of the Federal Research Centre for Cultivated Plants (German Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture) in Münster, Germany. His research interests include 1) rodent population management that is ecologically and economically sustainable in various systems and various regions of the world, 2) assessing and mediating risk associated with rodent management and 3) the ecology of rodent-borne pathogens ad 4) predictive models for forecasting rodent outbreaks and zoonotic risk to help to take early and optimal action. In the past 30 years, Dr. Jacob has conducted laboratory, enclosure and field-based projects in Asia, Australia, Europe and the Pacific funded by national and international donors. He has published >170 scientific articles, chairs expert groups and is subject editor vertebrates for international peer-reviewed journals.Grant R Singleton (Edited By) Grant Singleton is a Visiting Professor at the Natural Resources Institute, University of Greenwich, UK, and an Adjunct Professor at the Department of Biological Sciences, Northern Arizona University, USA. He spent 23 years as a researcher at CSIRO, Canberra, Australia, and 18 years as a Principal Scientist and consultant at the International Rice Research Institute in the Philippines. He has been involved in research on rodent pests of agriculture and their biology and management in cereal agro-ecosystems in Asia and Australia for 40 years. In eastern Africa, Grant has been on the Scientific Advisory Board of four projects on rodent biology and management. His research strongly aligned with end-users, particularly farmer groups. He co-developed a new management paradigm: "integrated ecologically-based rodent management" in the late 1990s and this approach is now adopted in more than 40 countries. He has co-authored seven books on rodent biology & management, and three books on natural resource management of rice.
