6. Laura Newberry, Claremont, California
She is currently working on her Ph.D. at Claremont Graduate University in the Women's Studies in Religion program at Claramount, California, USA. She holds a B.A., in Classical Studies
and Spanish form the College of Wooster in Ohio. Her current research interests are primarily focused within the realm of South Asian Religions particularly Hindu Goddesses and Jainism. She has done extensive research on Homeric expressions of time, women roles in Spanish and Classical contexts, and pilgrimages of Jainism. She is particularly drawn to Jainism forits commitment to non-violence (ahiṁsā) and its devotion to the value of all living things.
7. Mercel Parent, Montreal, Canada
He is presently in the Ph.D. program at Concordia University in Montreal, Canada. He is an expert in Buddhist and Jaina Studies, Indian Philosophy and 20h century French and German
philosophy. His interest in Jainism is due to both its place and influential discipline in the South Asian context and also due to its long history of anti-foundationalism and perspectivalism. His own project is to examine these themes in their historical context, but also their applicability in a global setting where he feels Jaina thought needs more of voice.
