Karen Lloyd serves as the Wrigley Chair in Environmental Studies and Professor of Earth Sciences at the University of Southern California, following her tenure as an Associate Professor at the University of Tennessee. Her primary area of expertise lies in the study of microbes within Earth's deep surface biosphere, employing a variety of molecular biological techniques.
Lloyd's research involves collecting environmental samples from a wide array of diverse locations. These include Arctic fjords, Costa Rican volcanoes, and even mud sourced from the vicinity of the Marianas Trench, among others. These field excursions provide a firsthand look into the environments where these remarkable organisms exist, such as deep oceanic subsurface sediments, deep-sea mud volcanoes, terrestrial volcanoes, hot springs, serpentinizing springs, and Arctic marine fjord sediments.
One of the most distinctive aspects of Lloyd's work is her focus on characterizing microbes that have not been cultured in a laboratory. By adapting techniques to study these organisms with minimal disturbance to their natural conditions, she offers an innovative approach to microbial research.
