Biography

Angela Burrow is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife at Michigan State University. With a Ph.D. in Forestry Natural Resources from the University of Georgia, she specializes in wetland ecology and management. Her research broadly addresses the interactions between natural dynamic processes—such as fire, flooding, and succession—and human-driven disturbances in natural resource conservation. As a wildlife ecologist, she employs a multi-stressor lens to investigate the impacts of environmental change on wetland-associated wildlife. A critical aspect of her work involves evaluating the effectiveness of restoration and management actions aimed at supporting the resilience of herpetofauna and wetlands. She collaborates closely with stakeholders, including state and federal agencies and local communities, to develop and share research findings essential to conservation. Burrow's research is driven by the needs of conservation management, grounded in biological and ecological theory, leading to knowledge that informs decision-making in conservation efforts. She is passionate about mentoring and teaching, working to build a more equitable and inclusive scientific community.
