He also served as Dean of Arts and Sciences from 1983 to 1987, and as Director of the Johns Hopkins’ Institute for Global Studies from 2002 to 2005. Dr. Fisher’s early research focused on the geology of the Appalachian Mountain system and on the kinetics of metamorphic processes, especially on how rates of heat flow, diffusion, and chemical reaction can jointly influence textures and structures in deeply buried rocks. During the last fifteen years, his interests have shifted to questions of how the Earth functions as a system, how humans can learn to live within the limits of the Earth system, and how natural science and religious thought can jointly shape our response to those questions. His interest in the links between science and religion led Dr. Fisher to study theology at St. Mary’s Seminary and University (MA, 2002). In retirement, he continues to teach courses on nature, religious thought, and responsible living in Johns Hopkins’ part time Master of Liberal Arts program, and in the Ecumenical Institute of Theology at Saint Mary’s Seminary and University in Baltimore. He also serves on the boards of two national organizations devoted to promoting the science-religion conversation, the Institute on Religion in an Age of Science (IRAS), and Metanexus.
