James has taught biochemistry and molecular biology across 3 institutions to a range of undergraduate and graduate levels. In particular, he is passionate about breaking down barriers between students and educators through building supportive and inclusive learning environments. In addition to the ASBMB Education SIG, he is an active member of the Australasian Society for Computers in Learning in Tertiary Education (ASCILITE) and is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA). In the ASBMB Education SIG, James helps administrate the Education SIG website and LinkedIn group.

As an educational researcher, he is interested in the role technology plays in shaping student learning in molecular bioscience. Recent technological advances have greatly improved our ability to visualise and interact with models of cells, molecules and other three-dimensional structures through different formats such as 3D printed models and in VR. Generative AI as a technology in particular poses both challenges but also opportunities for creating interactive and dynamic learning experiences in physical and online class settings. He routinely experiments with emerging technologies to see how these might impact pedagogy, learning and the student experience.
