I'm Emily, a Philosopher of Religion and Science at the University of Cambridge.

I arrived at Cambridge in 2024, and since then I have taught Theology and Natural Science, and other related topics, at the Faculty of Divinity. I am also a Research Associate at Fitzwilliam College.
 
I was at the University of Oxford from 2013 - 2024. In 2016, I completed my undergraduate degree in Philosophy and Theology. I was awarded the Gibbs Prize for best performance in final examinations.

I then went on to complete an M.St (2018) and a D.Phil (2021) in Science and Religion, focusing on the interface between physics, temporal metaphysics, and the Christian Doctrine of Salvation.

​

After graduating, I held a Junior Research Fellowship at Pembroke College (2021-2024) and a College Lectureship in Philosophy at Oriel College (2022-2024).

In 2022, I published my first book: God, Salvation, and the Problem of Spacetime (Cambridge University Press).

In 2024 I published my second book, Salvation in the Block Universe: Time, Tillich, and Transformation (Cambridge University Press). It was recently awarded the 2025 ISSR Book Prize (academic).

​

COMING NOV 2025 - Decoding the Cosmos: God, Physics, and the Search for Deeper Explanation (Cascade). This is an accessible exploration of Christian theology and modern physics.

I am currently writing my fourth book (under contract with Reaktion) which explores the Everett interpretation of Quantum Mechanics and theism.

​

I am committed to sharing academic ideas with wider audiences, and have worked with leading institutions including the BBC and New Scientist. I welcome invitations for speaking engagements.
