Claire White

I am a Professor at the Religious Studies Department at California State University, Northridge.
My research explains why behaviors like grief rituals recur across cultures. I am also interested in the relationship between religion and well-being. My approach is interdisciplinary and firmly rooted in the cognitive sciences.
Seeking answers to research questions has taken me to diverse places around the globe, fueling my passion for travel and exploration.
