Her research focuses on the social epistemology of science, integrating historically informed philosophy of science with formal models. Key areas include agent-based modeling of scientific inquiry, analysis of scientific disagreements, and the application of diagnostic evidence frameworks. She explores how epistemic dynamics influence scientific consensus and polarization.

Recent articles investigate topics such as myside bias in scientific debates and the impact of diagnostic evidence on polarization, highlighting methodological innovation in combining formal models with historical and social dimensions of scientific practice.
