Russell L. Burke is a Professor of Biology at Hofstra University. His research focuses on vertebrate ecology, evolution, and conservation biology, with particular emphasis on introduced and rare species. Current projects include studying diamondback terrapins in Jamaica Bay, continental-scale Lyme Disease ecology, and coyote ecosystem impacts on Long Island.
- Education: PhD (University of Michigan), MS (University of Florida), BS (Ohio State University)
Research interests integrate conservation challenges such as habitat loss, invasive species, and disease biogeography. He teaches courses including Ecology, Biostatistics, and Advanced Conservation Biology at both undergraduate and graduate levels.
Lyme Disease research involves collaborative continental-scale investigations to explain regional prevalence disparities. His terrapin studies address threats like habitat degradation and predation. No specific awards or grants are listed in the provided text.
