Dr Stefanie Broszeit is a marine ecologist. She studied marine biology at Plymouth University and then went on to do a MSc at the Centre for marine tropical ecology, in Bremen, Germany. She then carried out intertidal surveys in SW Ireland before joining Plymouth University as a research and teaching technician. She obtained her PhD at University College Cork, Ireland, after studying spatial and temporal patterns of soft sediment communities affected by strongly variable current regimes and seasonal hypoxia. After her PhD she did a post doc looking at the effects of artificial structures on marine benthic assemblages in the Italian Adriatic.

Stefanie joined PML to work on ecosystem services. She aims to decipher how ecosystems function and translate into services that benefit humans. To understand the links between ecosystems, their functions and their services to humans is difficult yet indispensable if we wish to predict how human interactions with the marine environment may change the services we rely on. Stefanie participates in collaborative projects within the UK and EU and is presently involved in the MERP (Marine Ecosystems Research Programme) and UK Ocean Acidification Research Programme, as well as DEVelopment Of innovative Tools for understanding marine biodiversity and assessing good Environmental Status (DEVOTES).
