Estelle BROSSET is a distinguished University Professor of Public Law at Aix-Marseille University, where she serves as Deputy Director of the Center for International and Community Studies and Co-Director of the Master 2 'Environmental Law' program. A senior member of the Institut Universitaire de France (2021-2026), she has received significant recognition including a Jean Monnet Chair from the European Commission (2012-2015) and coordination of the University's Jean Monnet Center of Excellence (2016-2019). Her academic leadership extends to multiple research projects including APPRISE, CEJM-Europe, CLIMARM, and the European Association of Health Law.

Professor BROSSET's research primarily focuses on European Union health and environmental law, with particular expertise in bioethics, climate law, and biotechnology regulation. Her extensive body of work examines the intersection of public health, environmental protection, and EU legal frameworks, with significant contributions to understanding pandemic responses, GMO regulation, climate litigation, and the implementation of the Paris Agreement within EU law. She has published extensively on the challenges of harmonizing national approaches within the EU framework while addressing complex issues like genome editing, mutagenesis, and environmental emergencies.

Her recent publications reveal a strong trend toward analyzing contemporary challenges in EU law, particularly responses to the Covid-19 pandemic, climate litigation developments like the People's Climate Case, and the evolving regulatory landscape for biotechnologies. Her work demonstrates how EU law navigates between harmonization and national differentiation across health and environmental domains, often addressing gaps in legal frameworks during crises.
