Biography

Dr. Greeshma Gadikota is the Lenfest Earth Institute Chair and Professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Engineering and Columbia Climate School at Columbia University. Prior to her appointment at Columbia University, she served on the faculty at Cornell University and the University of Wisconsin – Madison. She held postdoctoral research associate appointments at Princeton University and Columbia University, and a research associate appointment at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Her PhD in Chemical Engineering and MS degrees in Chemical Engineering and Operations Research are from Columbia University. Her BS in Chemical Engineering and Economics is from Michigan State University.  She directs the Sustainable Energy and Resource Recovery Group. Her research is focused on: (i) advancing novel technologies for the co – recovery of sustainable energy carriers and energy critical and relevant metals while valorizing multiple emission streams and (ii) developing sustainable subsurface energy technologies. This vision is realized by unlocking the underlying cross – scale fluid – surface interactions at the molecular –, nano  –,  and meso – scales to inform field scale deployment. Her scientific contributions are recognized by the DOE, NSF and ARO CAREER Awards, Sigma Xi Young Investigator Award, Cornell Engineering Research Excellence Award, Inaugural Cornell Rising Women Innovator Award, AICHE Sabic Award for Young Professionals, and ACS Women’s Chemists Committee (WCC) Rising Star Award to list a few notable recognitions.
