Helen joined WWF in June 2004 as Senior Marine Conservation Biologist. Helen is conducting "strategic" research with direct conservation application, working closely with program, policy, and field staff to ensure WWF's marine conservation efforts are based strongly on science. She is developing tools and guidelines for WWF field programs regarding marine protected area design, sustainable fisheries, climate change, and related issues. She received her Ph.D. from U.C. Berkeley investigating coral recovery and rehabilitation techniques for reefs damaged by dynamite or "blast" fishing in Indonesia. As a D.H. Smith/The Nature Conservancy Postdoctoral Fellow at the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology, she works on connectivity of reef populations and how this relates to marine protected area design.
