Sangseraima Ujeed is Assistant Professor of Tibetan Buddhism at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, with MSt and DPhil degrees from the University of Oxford. Her research examines how Buddhism traveled across cultural and geographical boundaries in Early Modern Tibet and Mongolia. She studies the networks—of translation, lineage, monasteries, and reincarnate teachers—that connected Buddhist communities across regions, paying particular attention to the often-overlooked contributions of ethnically Mongolian monk scholars to the broader Buddhist tradition.
