Catherine Hardie is an assistant professor of Buddhist Studies at the University of Hong Kong. She obtained her DPhil in Anthropology from the University of Oxford in 2019 for a dissertation on Sino-Tibetan Buddhist interactions in China. Her research focuses on Tibetan Buddhism in China and the Sinophone world more broadly, with a particular interest in culturally cross-cutting forms of religious community, identity, discourse and practice. She is currently working on a Hong Kong RCG-funded research project that explores contemporary Sino-Tibetan monastic religiosities and completing another RCG-funded project on the digital mediation of Tibetan Buddhism in the Sinosphere.
Before joining the University of Hong Kong in January 2024, she was an assistant professor in the Department of Translation, Interpreting and Intercultural Studies at Hong Kong Baptist University. In recent years, she has given presentations at international conferences and published several book chapters and journal articles dealing with the Sino-Tibetan Buddhist community at Larung Gar. She is engaged in an ongoing book project that expands upon her doctoral dissertation, integrating traditional and digital ethnography, textual research, and oral history.
