He served as Director of Science and Research at Biosphere 2, Tucson, Arizona, where he engaged and challenged world class scientists to elucidate the scientific importance of the closed facility and its relevance to climate change. He was co-editor of a special issue of Ecological Engineering describing past and current research in the Biosphere 2 research facility. He also served as a Research Associate of Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University and of the Division of Applied Sciences, Harvard University.

Bruno was Principal Investigator for a PEM four-year cooperative agreement award in 2010 totaling ~$2 million with the Department of Energy and National Energy Technology Laboratory. During the agreement period PEM successfully deployed advanced isotopic laser analyzers in remote and populated locations to directly measure fossil fuel and related sources of CO2. He is a graduate of Phillips Andover Academy, Johns Hopkins University (BA) and Harvard University where he was awarded a NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies Fellowship to complete his PhD in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences.
