Dr. Moore is a Professor in the Department of Environmental and Radiological Health Sciences
with a joint appointment in the Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management at
Colorado State University, in Fort Collins, Colorado. He is physically located in the Arthropodborne & Infectious Diseases Laboratory on the CSU Foothills Campus. His research focuses on
the application of geographic information systems, remote sensing, and related technologies to
vector-borne and zoonotic diseases of human and veterinary public health importance; vectorborne disease models; and the impact of invasive species on disease systems.
Prior to his retirement from federal service, Dr. Moore was Supervisory Research Entomologist
and GIS Coordinator in the Division of Vector-Borne Infectious Diseases, National Center for
Infectious Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, located in Fort Collins,
Colorado. He received his BS, MS, and PhD degrees from the University of California, Davis.
Dr. Moore is the author/co-author of over 60 research papers or book chapters, and has received
numerous government and professional society awards. He is a past-president of the American
Mosquito Control Association, the Society for Vector Ecology, and the West-Central Mosquito
and Vector Control Association.
Dr. Moore also is President of Vector Biology and Control International, an independent
consulting firm that provides training and consultation on the biology and control of vectorborne diseases. VBCI provides on-site training, develops tailored training manuals and other
material, and assists agencies in developing effective surveillance, prevention, and control
programs. Emphasis is placed on rapid response and the use of current technology—such as
GIS, GPS, and automated field data entry—to reduce personnel costs and speed up
turnaround times.
