While earning her Master's and PhD in Aeronautics and Bioengineering, Katija began to study the mechanics of swimming and feeding marine organisms.
Kakani Katija completed her bachelor's degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics at the University of Washington in 2004.
This discovery led Katija to study how marine life contributes to mixing the ocean.
[3] Katija's work also includes understanding how much sea creatures mix fluid in the ocean at rates comparable to winds and tides.
