Biography

Dr. Rebecca Catto is a sociologist of religion born and raised in the UK. She joined the Department of Sociology and Criminology nearly a decade ago and loves it here. As well as her current "Science and Religion: Exploring the Spectrum of Global Perspectives" research project, she is running a podcast with Dr. Bahlai from Biological Sciences and Dr. Mulvey from Education. In the podcast, they explore the process of how data becomes information, information becomes knowledge, and knowledge becomes belief - and how in turn, belief shapes the way we take and interpret data.
