  • 1999 - Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada Academy of Science

Overview

John H. Borden is affiliated with Simon Fraser University in Canada and has a research focus primarily within Agricultural and Biological Sciences as well as Environmental Science. Their areas of expertise extend across several subfields including Insect Science, Ecology, Genetics, Epidemiology, and Infectious Diseases.

Their research addresses a variety of topics with an emphasis on insect and pesticide research, forest insect ecology and management, and insect and arachnid ecology and behavior. Additional specialized interests include Trypanosoma species research and implications, insect-plant interactions and control, dermatological diseases and infestations, and insect and parasite interactions.

Frequent publication venues for their work include The Canadian Entomologist, Journal of Medical Entomology, Journal of Economic Entomology, Pest Management Science, and Environmental Entomology. The Canadian Entomologist features the highest number of their publications.

They have collaborated regularly with several co-authors, notably Michael G. Banfield, Christopher H. Downs, Gabriel L. Hamer, Sarah A. Hamer, and Alyssa S Branca.

Recent papers authored or co-authored by John H. Borden include:

  • "Detection and monitoring of bed bugs (Hemiptera: Cimicidae): review of the underlying science, existing products and future prospects," 2021, Pest Management Science
  • "Disruption of coniferophagous bark beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) mass attack using angiosperm nonhost volatiles: from concept to operational use," 2020, The Canadian Entomologist
