Brigida Bowen

Brigida Bowen is a Researcher and PhD candidate in the Department of Agriculture, Nutritional Science and Landscape Development at Anhalt University of Applied Sciences, Bernburg, Germany. Her doctoral research within the AgriRestore project focuses on ecosystem and landscape restoration to enhance vertebrate diversity in agricultural landscapes.

Her academic background includes:

• PhD in AgriRestore (2024–present) at Anhalt University of Applied Sciences
• M.Sc. in Environmental Sciences-Applied Ecology (2021–2023) from Eötvös Loránd University
• Exchange Studies in Earth Sciences (2014–2015) at the University of Glasgow
• B.Sc. in Geology (2011–2017) from the University of Brasília

Brigida's research integrates Agroecology, Conservation Biology, and Restoration Ecology to address biodiversity loss in farming environments. She specializes in vertebrate ecology with empirical focus on birds and bats, employing meta-analysis to synthesize landscape-scale restoration outcomes. Her work bridges agricultural production systems with wildlife conservation through evidence-based habitat interventions.

Based in Building 14 (Roemer-Haus) at Strenzfelder Allee 28, she contributes to departmental research initiatives while advancing her dissertation on agricultural landscape restoration. Her position as Researcher supports both her doctoral studies and the university's ecological research mission within Germany's Central German agricultural region.
