Emma L. Cartledge

Emma L. Cartledge serves as a Research Fellow at Nottingham Trent University's School of Animal, Rural and Environmental Sciences. Her work focuses on conservation biology with emphasis on species recovery and reintroduction programs.

Her educational background includes a PhD from the University of Liverpool's Institute of Infection, Veterinary and Ecological Sciences (2018-2023) and an MBiol from the University of York's Department of Biology (2013-2017).

Dr. Cartledge's research centers on conservation science and population biology, particularly examining climate impacts on endangered species. Her work integrates environmental DNA techniques, remote sensing, and habitat modeling to develop evidence-based strategies for species recovery. Current projects investigate climate suitability for hazel dormice and refine reintroduction protocols.

Her publication portfolio demonstrates consistent focus on small mammal conservation, with recent work analyzing climate change impacts on reintroduced populations and developing novel survey methodologies. Key trends include interdisciplinary approaches combining field ecology with geospatial technologies.

Professional recognition includes peer review activities for Mammalian Biology.

Dr. Cartledge collaborates extensively with conservation researchers across UK institutions, including University of Liverpool and University of York teams. Her current work supports evidence-based wildlife management through advanced monitoring techniques and predictive modeling.
