John P. Slattery is the Executive Director of the Carl G. Grefenstette Center for Ethics in Science, Technology, and Law at Duquesne University. An ethicist, theologian, and historian of science, Slattery works at the intersection of technology, science, religion, and racism. He is the author of the 2019 Faith and Science at Notre Dame, the editor of the 2020 Christian Theology and the Modern Sciences, and a contributing author to the open access 2024 book from the Vatican’s Dicastery on Culture and Education, Encountering Artificial Intelligence. Prior to Duquesne, he worked at Dialogue on Science, Ethics, and Religion (DoSER) program of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in Washington, DC, where he produced a series of videos, including Science as Mastery: A Story of Race and Power. His essays have appeared online in Commonweal, America, Science, Religion Dispatches, Daily Theology, and other outlets. The tiles below represent a selection of his recent writings and lectures.

“Slattery’s account…provides a much-needed bridge between this reactionary era in the Church’s recent intellectual history and the more open era of Catholic thought that preceded the French Revolution. Faith and Science at Notre Dame is an indispensable addition to this history.“
“Immune to Science,” Commonweal Magazine.

“I recommend everyone interested in science‐and‐religion to read this handbook.“
