Karen Lloyd, professor of microbiology, will present “Life One Mile Below the Surface of Earth” Friday, April 26.
Microorganisms living underneath the surface of the earth have a total carbon mass of 15 to 23 billion tons, hundreds of times more than that of humans. In her presentation, Professor Lloyd will discuss these findings from a study by the Deep Carbon Observatory. Read more about her research.
