Burrows's primary research interests are supernova theory,[1] exoplanet and brown dwarf theory, planetary atmospheres, computational astrophysics, and nuclear astrophysics. Well known as a pioneer in the theory of exoplanets, brown dwarfs, and supernovae, he has written numerous fundamental and influential papers and reviews on these subjects during the last ~30 years. He has collaborated with more than 150 co-authors on more than 300 papers and given more than 300 invited talks and colloquia.

He has served on the Committee on Astronomy and Astrophysics (CAA) of the NRC; on the NRC Rare Isotope Science Assessment Committee; on the Subcommittee on the Implementation of the DOE Long-Range Plan for Nuclear Physics; as the chair of the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics (KITP) advisory board; as the co-chair of NASA's Universe Subcommittee; as the chair of NASA's Origins Subcommittee; as a co-chair of NASA's Strategic Roadmapping Committee "Search for Earth-like Planets"; as a co-chair of NASA's Origins/SEUS Roadmapping committee; and as a primary author of NASA 2003 Origins Roadmap. Burrows is also the director of the Princeton Planets and Life Certificate Program and is on the board of trustees of the Aspen Center for Physics.

In 2011, Burrows delivered a talk, "Explosive Astrophysics: Supernovae and Gamma Ray Bursts," at the first Starmus Festival in the Canary Islands. The talk was published in the book Starmus: 50 Years of Man in Space.[2]
