I am a Professor of Science, Knowledge, and Belief in Society at the University of Birmingham. I am a transdisciplinary researcher whose work is predominantly sociological, historical, philosophical, and psychological in approach. My research focuses on: the perception of, and engagement with, STEMM in diverse societies; National and international science communication: the role of 'science', non-religion and/or beliefs as identity markers, in public space 'conflict narratives', stereotypes or prejudice formation; and public perceptions of the relationship between science and belief.
