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.
