Lisa Schulte Moore

Dr. Schulte Moore is co-founder of the Science-based Trials of Rowcrops Integrated with Prairie Strips (STRIPS) project, which pioneered the prairie strips conservation practice that is now being applied on farm fields across the US Midwest and beyond. She is also lead developer of People in Ecosystems/ Watershed Integration (PEWI), a simple web-based educational tool that has been used in classrooms all over the world. She directs C-CHANGE, which began in 2018 as an Iowa State University Presidential Interdisciplinary Research Initiative and expanded in 2020 into a USDA-NIFA Sustainable Agricultural Systems project.

Dr. Schulte Moore has published more than 100 scientific and educational articles. Her honors include the Iowa State University Early Career Award in Teaching (2007), Teaching Award of Merit from the North American Colleges and Teachers of Agriculture (2007), Stanford University Leopold Leadership Fellow (2013), Kavli Frontiers of Science Fellow (2014), University of Minnesota Duluth Academy of Science and Engineering Inductee (2017), Business Record/ISU Ivy College of Business innovationENTREPRENEUR Award (2020), Ecological Society of America Fellow (2021), MacArthur Fellow (2021), AAAS Fellow (2024), and Citation for Leadership and Achievement from the Council of Scientific Society Presidents (2022). Along with her colleagues on the STRIPS team, she received the Iowa State University College of Agriculture and Life Science Team Award in 2018 and the Soil and Water Conservation Society's Conservation Innovation Award in 2020 for their development of prairie strips. In 2022, the C-CHANGE team was awarded ISU's Interdisciplinary Team Research Award, and the ISU Carbon team received the ISU College of Agriculture and Life Science Dean's Citation Award for their work on behalf of the state of Iowa. She is on the editorial board for the scientific journal BioScience and a member of Ecological Society of America’s Rapid Response Team. She formerly served on the boards of directors for Iowa Wildlife Federation, Practical Farmers of Iowa, and Wright Foundation for Sustainability and Innovation, the board of trustees for The Nature Conservancy's Iowa Chapter, and the science advisory board for the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center. Her work has been covered by the BBC, Corn and Soybean Digest, National Geographic, National Public Radio, NBC Nightly News, New York Times, PBS News Hour, Successful Farming, The Guardian, and The Washington Post, among other farm and general interest media outlets.

She has been a faculty member at Iowa State University since 2003. She was a post-doctoral associate with the U.S. Forest Service from 2002 to 2003. She earned a B.S. in biology at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, an M.S. in biology at the University of Minnesota-Duluth, and a Ph.D. in forestry in 2002 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Regarding her approach to work, Schulte Moore states: "I am a scientist who works to find solutions to tough problems at the intersection of agriculture and our environment. We all need to eat, but we also need a livable climate, clean water, abundant wildlife, and places of wonder. We all need to do a better job of supporting the people in agriculture to meet these multiple goals. I am employed by a public land-grant university, so I serve all of society, but firstly Iowans. I'm neither "wizard" or "prophet", per Charles Mann's description of dueling scientists, but more of a jazz artist who likes to play in big bands that produce rich, vibrant sounds. I don't fit in neat, tidy boxes.

• On collaboration: Everyone deserves respect. I don't make assumptions about people's intentions but take them at "face value." I work with people who are honest about the challenges our society faces and focused on finding solutions to them. I work with people who are in it for the long haul.
• On teaching and mentoring: I teach ecology. That has always been my primary career goal. I recognize everyone has knowledge to share. I thus make a point to listen before speaking. I try to meet people where they are and learn together from there. I use this approach one-on-one, in small groups, and in larger venues.
• On science: I work in teams to collect more, better data. We curate it. We honestly interpret it. If the data don't fit theory, we collect more, better data to see if the answer changes. If not, we're honest about it.
• On solutions: I look to nature for inspiration. I foster diversity, cultivate redundancy, and enable change.
  • On diversity: I nurture crop, livestock, market, and landscape diversity. Nature and wealth management teach us to invest in a portfolio. Diversity is key to resilience.
  • On redundancy: In nature, there's always more than one way to solve a problem. I work to expand the options available to students, land managers, and policy makers.
  • On change: I support adaptation, continuous improvement processes, and the leadership of the next generation.
• On science communication: I speak from the data, but recognize its limits. I speak to people's hearts as well as their heads. I try to help people see the path. I ask, "what is the next best step?"

Funders

Dr. Schulte Moore's direct research and outreach team is currently supported by grants and gifts from the following institutions: USDA National Institute for Food and Agriculture (AFRI and McIntire-Stennis programs), Iowa Energy Center, Iowa Nutrient Research Center, Iowa State University Office of the Vice President for Research, Epstein-Lueck Family Foundation, Iowa Biosciences Platforms - Digital and Precision Agriculture Program, Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture, and Windsor Charitable Foundation. Dr. Schulte Moore is also supported through a fellowship from the MacArthur Foundation and funding from the Dean of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Iowa State University.

We previously received funding from the USDA Farm Service Agency, USDA Forest Service, Walton Family Foundation, Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research (with matching funds from Iowa State University, Bayer Crop Science, Syngenta, DuPont-Pioneer, and Roeslein Alternative Energy), Iowa State University (Department of Natural Resource Ecology and Management, Department of Agronomy), Bia-Echo Foundation, The McKnight Foundation, USDA Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education Initiative, National Science Foundation, 11th Hour Project, CropLife Foundation, US Fish and Wildlife Service, The Nature Conservancy, Iowa Soybean Association, Natural Resources Defense Council, Iowa Agriculture Water Alliance, Renewable Energy Group, Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Iowa Native Plant Society, and Iowa Ornithological Union.

The funds provided by these organizations cover the costs of student and staff time, data collection, and enable us to disseminate our work through presentations, field days, workshops, and publications. We are so thankful for their support of science, education, and outreach!
