About the Workshop

Our Goal

This research group aims to build up a new academic community in Tokyo that enables an interdisciplinary discussion on Buddhist culture along the Silk Road, based on multiple approaches and perspectives such as Archaeology, Art History, Philology, and Conservation Science.

One of our principles is to create a platform for presentations, discussion, and networking researchers and students in various academic disciplines, especially in younger generation (including MA and PhD students, motivated undergraduates, and early career researchers) across the institutions.

Additionally, we host international academic conferences at least once a year, inviting guest lecturers from abroad. Please join us to create a supportive and encouraging academic community where scholars from diverse fields can frankly share the essence of their own research achievement and get feedbacks and inspirations from broader perspectives!

Policies

We welcome a wide range of presentations, including research paper, interim and final presentations of the undergraduate paper, MA and PhD theses, drafts for conference presentations, reports of research survey, and book reviews.
Please be conscious of the interdisciplinary nature of our platform, presenting with consideration for those in other fields, and engaging in discussion with a broad perspective while respecting the methodologies and research traditions of each discipline. We of course cordially welcome participation and comments of the established and senior researchers in each field.
