I am the co-leader of the Our World and Universe research theme at the Faculty of Science, alongside Dr Nicholas Rattenbury, an initiative aimed at developing a multidisciplinary network focused on the study of the Earth, space and fundamental questions.

My own research interests include misinformation, psychological mechanisms behind science denial and science communication.
