| Occupation | Interdisciplinary Scholar - History, Science & Religion |
| Location | New York, NY, United States |
| Introduction | I investigate the evolution of religious thought in the light of science, technology and medicine to distinguish fact from fiction. Although my academic training is in biology and chemistry, law, international relations, history, philosophy and theology, I am interested in the web of knowledge across disciplines. My current project involves tracing the travels of Marco Polo and Ibn Battuta to trace the migration of ideas across the Old Silk Road. |
