Research Interests

My research primarily focuses on how informal science education settings—such as museums, science centres, makerspaces, and science clubs—foster relationships between science and society. I examine different dimensions of these relationships, including issues of representation, public engagement, controversy, and scientific literacy. I am also interested in innovative exhibition practices and in how science museums can advance social responsibility, civic agency, and well-being by centring care and courage.

Areas of research: 

  • Informal science education
  • Science Education
  • Museum studies
  • Museum education
