I am a specialist in the study of religion with a focus on early Christianity. I currently run the research project The Early History of the Codex: A New Methodology and Ethics for Manuscript Studies (EthiCodex), sponsored by the Research Council of Norway (2021-2026). My most recent book, God's Library: The Archaeology of the Earliest Christian Manuscripts (Yale University Press, 2018), was the 2019 winner of the DeLong Book History Prize awarded by the Society for the History of Authorship, Reading and Publishing, as well as the Biblical Archaeology Society's prize for best book on a New Testament topic. I blog with some regularity at Variant Readings.
