Lee Ling Ting completed her PhD in Indian Philosophy from Harvard University. Her research focuses on the philosophy of language and epistemology in the Indian Nyāya and Buddhist traditions. She is particularly interested in exploring theories of word meaning, sentential meaning, and their relation to our understanding of sentences and acquisition of verbal knowledge. Through her work, she aims to bring classical Indian philosophical insights into dialogue with contemporary debates in philosophy of language and epistemology.
