Kenneth J. Stein, Ph.D.
Kenneth J. Stein is a consultant and holds a Ph.D. in entomology. He has significant experience with identifying factors that contribute to insect infestations of warehouses, including pests of textiles, furniture, and stored products. He has significant courtroom experience as an expert witness, and has worked with insurance adjustors. In addition, he recently served as a project evaluator for the Greater Cleveland Lead Advisory Council.
Dr. Stein has conducted research and published in the fields of public health, wetland ecology, herpetology, botany, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). His most recent research involves the modeling of tick populations as a function of habitat structure. This research led to the development of tick threat assessment maps for use on U. S. military and federal lands. These maps have many uses but primarily serve as a guide to help natural resource and military personnel avoid tickborne diseases. Dr. Stein also has a keen interest in ephemeral wetlands, especially the trophic level distribution of aquatic insects.
Dr. Stein is an avid naturalist, writer, and photographer. During his time conducting infectious disease research in Egypt, he developed an extensive collection of photos from the tombs of the Pharaohs. Many photos from his Ancient Egypt collection have been used in various publications and television documentaries. He is presently writing a textbook on earth science.
