Alec Bonham received his B.A. in Cognitive Science and Psychology and M.S. in Statistics from the University of Virginia and worked as a biostatistician before going on to receive his M.T.S. from the Harvard Divinity School, concentrating in Philosophy of Religion. His main research interests are philosophy of mind, cognitive science, philosophy of emotion, and epistemology. He is especially interested in how these areas intersect with Classical Indian Buddhist philosophy, specifically Buddhist moral psychologies and source of knowledge frameworks.
