Jerri Bartholomew<\/a>, the Emile F. Pernot Distinguished Professor and Head of the Microbiology Department, was recently awarded the American Fisheries Society (AFS) S.F Snieszko Distinguished Service Award<\/a> for her outstanding accomplishments in the field of aquatic animal health. This lifetime achievement award is the highest honor presented by the Fish Health Section of the AFS.<\/p>\n

Dedicated to promoting the conservation, development and wise use of fisheries, AFS awards this honor to acknowledge significant accomplishments in the area of fish health exemplified by research publications, grants for graduate student thesis projects, and a world-recognized research program and laboratory.<\/p>\n

Bartholomew received her award recently at the annual AFS meeting in Jackson Hole, WY, where she shared the limelight with fellow award winner Dr. Mamoru Yoshimizu, a Japanese scientist.<\/p>\n

An OSU alumna with both her master\u2019s degree and Ph.D. in fisheries science, Bartholomew joined the Department of Microbiology faculty 23 years ago and has joint appointments in the Colleges of Science and of Agricultural Sciences.<\/p>\n

Bartholomew\u2019s decades of publications and funded research focused on the endemic (and often fatal) wild Pacific salmon myxozoan parasite Ceratomyxa Shasta<\/em> and her directorship of the J.L. Fryer Aquatic Animal Health Laboratory<\/a> have deepened our understanding of how infectious organisms sicken salmonids and other freshwater fish, and produced forecasting models of how climate change might affect the interaction. Her research has advanced the microbiological understanding of the host-pathogen dynamic as well as produced practical recommendations for salmon fisheries that have already been put into good use.<\/p>\n

Her colleagues and collaborators around the world praise her scholarship, research and leadership. Arik Diamant, a senior scientist at Israel\u2019s National Center for Mariculture who collaborated with Bartholomew on research probing the mechanics of how the parasite infects salmon by activating specialized polar capsule cells, speaks to her international influence in the field:<\/p>\n

\u201cUnder her leadership, her research group generated innovative immunological and molecular approaches and tools that within several years resulted in remarkable scientific contributions\u2026 [greatly expanding] our knowledge of disease in wild riverine salmon. Jerri rapidly attained international recognition and her work is highly regarded by her colleagues.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In 2014, Bartholomew helped organize the 7th\u00a0International Symposium on Aquatic Animal Health (ISIAH) in Portland that attracted 300 fish health professionals from 26 countries. ISIAH is the preeminent meeting of international fish health professionals.<\/p>\n

\u201cJerri has substantially advanced our understanding of the threat facing salmon populations, and how that threat will evolve with climate change is highly relevant for a healthy people and a healthy planet,\u201d says Sastry G. Pantula, dean of the College of Science.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cI am very proud of her achievements, her service to the profession and her leadership as well as her exceptional teaching and mentoring of our students,” adds Pantula. “I am thrilled that she has received this tremendous honor.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bartholomew has long been recognized for her influence as a life-changing teacher and mentor. She has mentored six post-doctoral scholars as well as six Ph.D. and 15\u00a0master\u2019s students\u00a0and 17 undergraduates on their research projects. Bartholomew also teaches Advances in Disease Ecology,\u00a0Fish Diseases in Conservation Biology and Aquaculture,\u00a0and offers a semi-annual\u00a0Salmonid\u00a0Disease Workshop\u00a0for state and federal fishery biologists.<\/p>\n

Former Ph.D. student Charlene Hurst says, \u201cJerri was a wonderful advisor and teacher\u2026[encouraging] her students to develop and pursue their own scientific questions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bartholomew is also an accomplished glass artist who exhibited her fused and cast glass pieces recently at Memorial Hall last winter. This spring she is directing a large-scale exhibition, \u201cMicrobiomes:\u00a0 To See the Unseen<\/a>,\u201d at The Arts Center in Corvallis as part of SPARK<\/a>, a year-long celebration at OSU of the interplay between art and science. This exhibition asks both artists and researchers how to \u201cSee the Unseen?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
