In May 2024, the Institute hosted an international conference on the medieval Jewish thinker Moses Maimonides (1138–1204 C.E.) and the Christian thinker St Thomas Aquinas (ca. 1225–1274). The focus of the conference was on the areas of theology and philosophy where Aquinas directly and explicitly engaged the ideas of Maimonides. Video recordings of the presentations and roundtable discussions are now available on the conference webpage.
