Myers was a trustee of the Entomological Society of Canada. In 2004, she was awarded its gold medal for her contributions to the theory and practice of biological control. She also won the McCarthy Award from the Professional Pest Management Association of British Columbia. As a published author, she is widely held in libraries worldwide. (en) Judith (Judy) H. Myers est une écologue américano-canadienne. En 2014, elle est élue présidente de la Société canadienne d’écologie et d’évolution. Judith Myers est connue pour ses travaux concernant les interactions entre plantes, animaux et microbes, telles que les épidémies d’insectes ravageurs et les pathogènes et virus affectant les insectes. Elle a aussi produit un travail séminal sur les techniques de lutte biologique contre les insectes et les plantes, en particulier des espèces invasives. Durant sa carrière, elle a aussi milité vigoureusement pour une meilleure représentation et la participation des femmes dans les disciplines STIM (science, technologie, ingénierie et mathématiques). Judith Myers est une fiduciaire de la Société canadienne d’entomologie ; en 2004, elle reçoit la Médaille d’or de cette société pour ses travaux théoriques et pratiques de lutte biologique. Elle est aussi récipiendaire du McCarthy Award accordé par l’Association professionnelle de lutte biologique de Colombie Britannique. En tant qu’auteure, ses travaux sont largement disponibles dans les bibliothèques du monde entier. (fr)
