Charlotte Roy

Charlotte Roy is an Adjunct Assistant Professor affiliated with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Her research spans applied ecology, focusing on avian ecology, wildlife conservation, and genetic population dynamics. She employs interdisciplinary approaches to address population-level, community-level, and ecosystem-level questions.

Her work involves landscape genetics, survey methodology, and toxicological assessments, particularly in Minnesota's forest gamebirds and invasive species impacts. Current projects include West Nile virus prevalence, neonicotinoid-treated seed availability, and prescribed burning effects on vegetation and bird populations.

Recent publications highlight her expertise in avian toxicology, genetic connectivity, and conservation strategies for species like ruffed grouse and swamp rabbits. Collaborations with institutions such as the University of Missouri (her PhD alma mater) underpin her research.
