Chow-Yang Lee (Edited By) Chow-Yang Lee is the Professor and Endowed Presidential Chair in Urban Entomology at the University of California, Riverside, USA. He is internationally known for his research on behavioral, ecological, and physiological adaptations of urban insect pests. He published more than 295 peer-reviewed papers and books and mentored 17 PhD and 32 MS students. Chow-Yang received many accolades, including the Fellow of the Entomological Society of America (2024), Recognition Award in Medical, Urban and Veterinary Entomology (2022) from the Entomological Society of America, and the Arnold Mallis Distinguished Achievement Award in Urban Entomology (2022) from the National Conference on Urban Entomology (USA).Michael K. Rust (Edited By) Michael K. Rust is the Distinguished Professor of Graduate Division at the University of California. He has authored or co-authored ~200 papers dealing with urban insect pests and their control. He co-edited the seminal reference, Understanding and Controlling the German Cockroach (1995). Over the years, he has mentored 17 PhD and 14 MS students majoring in urban entomology. He has received numerous awards over the years including Distinguished Achievement Award in Urban Entomology, Entomology Society of America (1993), W.W. Woodworth Award, Pacific Branch of the Entomology Society of America (1994), Fellow of the Entomological Society of America (2001) and Fellow of American Association for the Advancement of Science (2002). His current research is focused on the interaction of sprays and baits to control German cockroaches.
