Schröter is an alumna of the Science, Environment and Development Group at Harvard University’s Center for International Development (CID). Prior to this she was project director of the European Vulnerability Assessment Project - ATEAM (Advanced Terrestrial Ecosystem Analysis and Modelling), a European Union funded large-scale research initiative led by PIK that was recently completed. She obtained her Ph.D. in ecosystems' research in 2001 at the Department of Animal Ecology at Gießen University in Germany, combining field research and numerical modelling. Her research interests are human-environment interactions, global change vulnerability assessment, ecological food web modelling and the carbon and nitrogen cycle. Her ultimate research goal is to make environmental sciences useful in interdisciplinary dialogues on sustainable management of the human-environment system.
