Educated in Germany and the US, she has worked in the US and Canada, where she is a professor of mathematics at the [[University of Toronto]].{{r|profile}}

==Education and career==
Burchard earned a diploma in mathematics (the German equivalent of a master's degree) in 1989 from [[Heidelberg University]], with research supervised by [[Willi Jäger]] on mathematical modeling of chemical reactions.{{r|cv}} She shifted to pure mathematics for her doctoral work on the [[Riesz rearrangement inequality]] at [[Georgia Tech]], supervised by [[Michael Loss]], completing her Ph.D. in 1994.{{r|cv|mg}}

She was a faculty member in the [[Princeton University]] department of mathematics from 1994 to 1998, and at the [[University of Virginia]] from 1998 to 2005. She has held her present position at the University of Toronto since 2005.{{r|cv|x}}

==Recognition==
In 2021, the [[Fields Institute]] listed Burchard as a [[List of fellows of the Fields Institute|Fellow]], recognizing her "energetic support" of the Fields Institute's, in helping develop an online program on [[fluid dynamics]], and in mentorship of undergraduates.{{r|fields}}
