Professor Colin Bean

Honorary Professor (School of Biodiversity, One Health & Veterinary Medicine)

Scottish Natural Heritage, Clydebank Business Park, Clydebank, G81 2nr

Biography

Professor Colin Bean is a fisheries biologist with over 25 years of research experience with the Universities of Ulster, Stirling and Glasgow. He has also held post-doctoral research fellowship positions at two internationally renowned institutions: the Freshwater Biological Association at Windermere and the Institute of Aquaculture at Stirling University. He is currently working as a Senior Science and Policy Adviser within the Ecosystems & Biodiversity Unit of Scottish Natural Heritage.

Interests

Colin joined SNH in 1999 and has maintained formal links with the University of Glasgow since that date, delivering lectures, field courses and supervising both MSc and PhD research students. Colin's particular interest is in evolutionary processes within rare fish populations and the development of conservation strategies for rare and endangered fish species (including conservation genetics). He is also involved in research programmes related to the control of invasive non-native species and the impact of freshwater and marine renewable technologies on fish.

His expertise in these areas is well recognised and he has carried out scientific peer-review tasks for a range of bodies, including NERC, Defra and Marine Scotland Science, as well as a wide range of international journals. He also has extensive experience of working overseas and is an active member of the IUCN Freshwater Fish Specialist Group formerly held a British Council-funded visiting Professorship to the Universidad Austral in Chile.

In recognition of his long-standing academic relationship with the University of Glasgow Colin was awarded an Honorary Professorship within the Institute of Biodiversity, Animal Health and Comparative Medicine in October 2014. Colin is delighted to be appointed to this role and is determined to maintain, and increase, his involvement within the Institute, and particularly the University’s .
