   personal_statement: Dr. Moore joined the Iowa Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research
     Unit as Assistant Unit Leader and Assistant Professor at Iowa State University
     in 2022. Prior to joining the Iowa Unit, he received his M.S. degree from Virginia
     Tech and PhD from the University of Missouri. Previous research examining fish
     and crayfish ecology from upland headwater creeks, to large interior rivers,
     and coastal lowland streams has expanded his interests in understanding the
     role of connectivity for aquatic biota and physical habitats throughout stream
     networks. Specific research interests include movement ecology, species reintroduction,
     aquatic community dynamics, invasive species management, stream habitat management,
     ecohydrology, climate change impacts, conservation biology of freshwater fish
     and crayfish, and science communication. For each of these themes his research
     aims to improve understanding of ecological processes to inform conservation
     decision making using multidisciplinary approaches. Dr. Moore seeks to foster
     a sense of belonging among diverse communities of students and professionals
     through teaching and mentoring. He teaches a graduate course in fisheries science
     at Iowa State University.
