Dr. Jeffrey Alan Lockwood (born 1960) is an award-winning author and University of Wyoming professor of Natural Sciences and Humanities.〔 〕 He writes both nonfiction science books, as well as meditations. Lockwood is the recipient of both the Pushcart Prize and the John Burroughs Medal.〔 Lockwood earned a B.S. degree in biology from New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, where he was the 1982 recipient of the Brown Award.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Brown Award Winners ) 〕 He received a Ph.D. in entomology from Louisiana State University, after completing a dissertation entitled ''The behavioral ecology of the first instar southern green stink bug, Nezara viridula (L.)''. His career at the University of Wyoming began as Assistant Professor of Entomology before becoming Professor of Natural Sciences and Humanities, then transferring to the philosophy department and teaching in the Master of Fine Arts program in creative writing.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lockwood, Jeffrey Alan )〕 Lockwood has authored numerous articles, some of which have been licensed by government entities, such as the Wyoming Water Research Center. In 2000, he co-authored ''Grasshoppers and Grassland Health'' for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. His most recent science book, ''Six-legged Soldiers: Using Insects as Weapons of War'', is a historical account of entomological bioterrorism from early days through the present, and the near future. ''A guest of the world: Meditations'' is Lockwood's latest book on spirituality under Skinner House Books, a book publisher run by the Unitarian Universalist Association. Lockwood's forthcoming book, ''The Infested Mind'', is an exploration of the psychological and philosophical dimensions of personal encounters with insects. Lockwood and other scholars at the University of Wyoming have recently become locked in a debate with university administration, and Wyoming business and energy leaders over what he and others have argued is a clear case of the infringement of academic freedom. According to emails and reports released under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), the sitting university President, Tom Buchanan, ordered the destruction of ''Carbon Sink'', an artwork created by Chris Drury (artist), after Wyoming energy and business leaders considered it an untoward criticism of the industry that partly subsidizes the university through severance tax. Although Wyoming industry leaders have called for a moratorium on the debate, the university administration's infringement of academic freedom has become the hot-button topic while the university seeks a replacement for Buchanan, upon his scheduled retirement in July 2013. Lockwood is married, and has a son and daughter. He is a member of the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Laramie, Wyoming, USA.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jeffrey A.
