Joy is a geomicrobiologist at the Geophysical Laboratory at Carnegie Institution of Washington. Joy's work combines her background in geoscience with a diverse toolkit of novel molecular methods, sequencing analysis, bioinformatics tools, and imaging techniques to delve into the interactions between the biosphere and geosphere that make life thrive in some of the harshest, uninhabitable environments. By combining results from wet-lab and in silico experiments, her work provides a holistic understanding of microbial activity in systems characterized by different geochemical regimes. While at the Geophysical Laboratory, Joy works on the NAI ENIGMA Project to answer big questions related to the co-evolution of the biosphere and geosphere through deep time, specifically focusing on the origins and evolution of oxidoreductases, the first nanomachines that made complex life possible on Earth, and on the mutual interactions of life and geologic materials/processes in redox-sensitive and climate-sensitive environments.
