Tibetan and Himalayan Library - THL

Description: The purpose of the Center for the Study of Science and Religion is to pursue important issues in science, medicine, ethics, economics, and other areas through scholarship and interdisciplinary dialogue. The center regularly organizes lectures and discussions featuring scientists, philosophers, psychologists, ethicists, religious studies scholars, and medical professionals and others. In past events, presenters have explored the relation between faith and biology, meditation and the brain, scientific truths versus religious meaning, ethics, religious experience, and the place of religion and medicine. The website includes the background and history of the center, a listing of relevant readings on religion and science, a list of publications related to the center, webcasts of past events, and information for undergraduate students.
