Juliet Mullins has written and published on hagiography in Old English, Middle Irish and Old Norse-Icelandic. Her most recent publication, co-authored with Professor Mary Clayton, was a three-volume edition and translation of Ælfric of Eynsham's Lives of Saints for the Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Library (November 2019). She was the Principal Investigator of an IRCHSS-funded project entitled Christ on the Cross: Textual and Material Representations of the Crucifixion in early medieval Ireland, which produced a number of articles, a database and the accompanying volume Envisioning Christ on the Cross: Ireland and the early medieval West (2013). Juliet also worked with Dr Katie Long on a project funded by a UCD Teaching and Learning Grant to produce the online Old English tool Wordloca and its handbook. 

Currently, Juliet is working on a project entitled Beautiful Suffering: Violence and Affective Devotion in Ælfric's  Lives of Saints.
