Expertise

My research interests include public understanding and communication of ideologically-entangled science, with a focus on climate change. I examine public understanding of the structure and methods of science, and public trust in science. I also study and test effective communication techniques for increasing public understanding of science and inspiring action on environmental issues.


I teach Introduction to Environmental Studies, Environmental Communication, and Climate Change Communication, Climate Futures in Fiction and Film, Is there a "War on Science?," and Science Communication
