Research interests
My research interests centre on the interconnections between science, religion, race, politics and gender in the modern world, using New Zealand as the major site of study. I am currently working on three projects: humanitarian and Maori Christians and their critics in colonial New Zealand; Christian missions and knowledge-making from the early church to the twenty-first century; and religion, politics, race and gender in southern Dunedin 1880–1940s.
