Dr. Meda-Lambru (she/her/ella) holds a PhD in Philosophy from Texas A&M University. Her scholarship builds with Latin American philosophy and Latina/x feminisms, especially in issues related to death, aesthetics, social and political philosophy, and decolonial theory. 

Meda-Lambru’s current research focuses on communal interpretations and practices of death from non-western philosophical traditions. She takes an interdisciplinary approach to study Day of the Dead/Día de los Muertos altars taken up by marginalized communities to theorize aesthetic, political, spiritual, and ethical expressions of death. 

Her essays are published in journals including The Pluralist, The Journal of World Philosophies and The Inter-American Journal of Philosophy.
