About the speaker:
John Brungardt is assistant professor of philosophy at the School of Catholic Studies at Newman University. As a philosopher, Catholic layman, and Dominican tertiary, his studies, teaching, and scholarship aim at continuing the philosophical tradition of St. Thomas Aquinas, Aristotle, and their heirs. He attempts to bring their insights into meaningful dialogue with modern theories. Prof. Brungardt’s central interests lie in the philosophy of nature and the philosophy of science. He is a member of various academic societies, including the American Catholic Philosophical Association and the American Maritain Association. Due to his interest in the relationship between faith and reason, he is also a scholar associate of the Society of Catholic Scientists and an ordinary member of The Sacra Doctrina Project. He also edits The Charles De Koninck Project. During 2017–2019, Prof. Brungardt was a postdoctoral researcher at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.
