Luis Oliveira, who earned his Ph.D. in philosophy from UMass in 2015 and is now Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of Houston, just received a $1.3 million grant from the Templeton Foundation to explore the epistemology of religion. Summer workshops planned over the next three years in Brazil, Argentina and Chile will connect Latin American philosophers with colleagues from the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom to stimulate academic interest and research in the epistemology of religion. Fellowships will bring Latin American scholars to U.S. universities in order to further strengthen research ties between the two groups. For more information, visit this page.
