Kerry is Professor of Deep Sea Ecology at the University of Plymouth and Plymouth Marine Laboratory, UK. Throughout her career, Kerry’s research has been focused on sustainable management of the deep-sea ecosystem. Her research has supported the design of national and international marine protected area networks, including the creation of reliable habitat maps and models of population connectivity that underpin the design. Her current research focuses on automating biological observations using image-based methods to generate the big data needed to construct more reliable models of biodiversity distributions in time and space. Kerry co-leads the UN Ocean Decade-endorsed Challenger 150 Program.
