Linta Reji is an Assistant Professor in the Geophysical Sciences at the University of Chicago, specializing in microbial ecology and biogeochemistry. Her research focuses on understanding the role of microbes in elemental cycling within terrestrial and coastal systems, particularly how these processes are influenced by environmental changes. She received her Ph.D. from Stanford University in the Department of Earth System Sciences, where she investigated the role of archaea in nitrogen transformations in coastal oceans. Following her doctorate, she conducted postdoctoral research at Princeton University, exploring the mechanistic underpinnings of microbially mediated trace gas cycling in soils and wetlands. Reji's research encompasses various microbially mediated transformations of carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen cycles, integrating laboratory experiments with field observations to better understand microbial responses to environmental changes and the implications for ecosystem diversity.
