Our team has an op ed in @ConversationUS addressing findings from our "Faith at Work" study:
"Thinking about work as a calling can be meaningful, but there can be unexpected downsides as well" https://t.co/Fxjb1l8lWV
@BDKalinowski@ProfDDaniels
@BDKalinowski talks about the implications of media bias for the relationship between science and religion. Read the article here: "Rice researchers talk media bias, nuance" https://t.co/8zpWYcUPb0
Ecklund and @BDKalinowski find that "while religion and/or spirituality can be a powerful motivator for workers, it can also lead to burnout or employee exploitation."
@RiceUNews discusses our latest research published in @SORJournal and @jssrjournal.

New research on #religion, #spirituality, & #work:
"By attending to how different religions frame (and interpret) meaning and purpose in work, and comparing these conceptions, we may understand our contemporary pluralistic and capitalist society better."

Dr. Elaine Howard Ecklund was on @HoustonMatters today discussing the intersection of religion & politics in recent events and more broadly. Assists from @kerbygoff@BDKalinowski @RiceRPLP @BoniukInstitute. Check out the Sept 1 episode here: https://t.co/WYH35i33th
New research coming out with @BobOThomson and others on how gender and organizational position at work impact faith-work integration. Excited also because this was the first paper I became a coauthor on since coming to Rice and learned a lot in the process!
To what extent do women & men across different organizational levels vary in the manner & degree they integrate their faith & work? RPLP fellows have published new research in the @JournalofMSR to answer this question & more: https://t.co/Hzx2ITHbr2. @BobOThomson @BDKalinowski
Made the point to students recently that despite the majority of Christians believing in evolution and seeing their faith as compatable, politicians have an outweighted impact in generating the perception of tension between science and religion.

The first tenured African American professor in the University’s Biological Sciences Division, Bowman’s field-defining work as a geneticist confronted the ethics of genetic testing before bioethics existed, and expanded our understanding of hereditary blood diseases.
Really looking forward to being a panelist on an @ASACulture professionalization panel on "Culture in a (Post)-Pandemic World" later this year during the @ASAnews annual meeting and sharing my experiences researching the adaptations of religious congregations during COVID.
Recently coauthored a piece in Zygon: Journal of Science and Religion with @brvnathan and other colleagues associated with @RiceRPLP on the way scientists in India think about boundaries between science and religion in the workplace.
"SCIENCE-RELIGION BOUNDARIES IN INDIAN SCIENTIFIC WORKPLACES": In this article, RPLP fellows @BDKalinowski@brvnathan & others draw on data from the Religion among Scientists in International Context project. The article is online at: https://t.co/depInSStgW.
