Biography
Dr. Kelly Robinson joined the Georgia Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit in August of 2022, where she is an Assistant Unit Leader and an Adjunct Associate Professor in the Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources at the University of Georgia. Dr. Robinson received her M.S. from College of Charleston and her Ph.D. from the University of Georgia, in the Georgia Unit. She was also a postdoctoral research associate at Cornell University, with the New York Unit, and an associate professor at Michigan State University. Dr. Robinson’s research focuses on fisheries ecology, conservation, and management, as well as the use of decision analysis for conservation and management of natural resources. Dr. Robinson has been working closely with management agencies, stakeholders, and rightsholders to make decisions related to invasive species control and harvest management, as well as to understand the effects of climate change and land-use change on these decisions. Most of Dr. Robinson’s work focuses on fish ecology, but she has also conducted decision analytic projects for wildlife species, including white-tailed deer, turkey, and piping plover. For the past few years, Dr. Robinson has been teaching a graduate level course in Structured Decision Making and Adaptive Management for Natural Resources.
