About
Christine C. Rega-Brodsky is a leading voice at the intersection of urban ecology and emerging technology. Her research focuses on how robotics and autonomous systems (RAS) are reshaping urban ecosystems, biodiversity, and the delivery of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. She co-authored a pivotal global horizon scan (2021, 87 citations) that identified the future impacts of RAS on cities, from waste management to habitat connectivity. Her subsequent work (2022, 86 citations) systematically mapped the opportunities and threats RAS pose to sustainable development, influencing policy and conservation planning. By bridging ecological principles with technological innovation, Rega-Brodsky has helped define a new field of inquiry, demonstrating that autonomous systems can either harm or help urban nature depending on how they are designed and governed. Her contributions are essential reading for ecologists, urban planners, and technologists seeking to build resilient, equitable cities in an automated age.
