Professor Bozia studies linguistic and cultural diversity in Greco-Roman antiquity and its intersection with modern globalism. Founder of an international consortium for the digitization of historical artifacts, she promotes the collaboration between the humanities and the sciences. Bozia is also a pioneer in applying AI to the humanities. She has published widely and delivered talks on issues of identity, otherness, and belonging in literature and the digital preservation of world heritage.

Bozia has served as the Chair of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Steering committee at the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the co-Chair of the DEI in General Education Taskforce at the University of Florida.

An Associate Professor at the University of Florida, Bozia holds two doctoral degrees: a Ph.D. in Classical Studies (University of Florida, 2009) and a Dr. phil. in Digital Humanities (Universität Leipzig, 2018). Bozia also serves as the Associate Director of the Digital Epigraphy and Archaeology Project, which advances the 3D preservation of artifacts with funding from American and European governmental agencies. Her work has been supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and has been recognized with several awards, including the Young Researcher Scholarship from La Fondation Hardt in Geneva and the Mary A. Sollman Scholarship from the American Academy in Rome.
