Fiorenza Micheli is co-Director of Hopkins Marine Station of Stanford University, and co-Director of Stanford’s Center for Ocean Solutions. Micheli is a marine ecologist and is the David and Lucile Packard Professor of Marine Science[1]. Micheli’s research focuses on the processes shaping marine communities and coastal social-ecological systems, and incorporating this understanding in marine management and conservation. She investigates climatic impacts on marine ecosystems, particularly the impacts of hypoxia and ocean acidification on marine species, communities and fisheries, marine predators’ ecology and trophic cascades, the dynamics and sustainability of small-scale fisheries, and the design and function of Marine Protected Areas. Her current research takes her to Mexico, Italy, and Palau, in addition to California. She is a Pew Fellow in Marine Conservation[2], a fellow of the California Academy of Sciences[3], research advisor to the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, Seafood Watch and the Benioff Ocean Initiative, and senior fellow at Stanford’s Woods Institute for the Environment[4].
