Dr. Bob Lackey is professor of fisheries science at Oregon State University. In 2008, he retired after 27 years with the Environmental Protection Agency’s 350-person national research laboratory in Corvallis where he served as Deputy Director, Associate Director for Science, and in other senior science leadership positions.
