Cristina Pecchia specializes in Indian and Buddhist philosophy, in particular Buddhist epistemology. She currently works on her stand-alone project [[Nobles Truths|The Nobles’ Truths in Indian Buddhist Epistemology]], with funding from the Austrian Science Fund (FWF). She also has a strong research interest in the āyurvedic tradition, in textual criticism and manuscript studies with reference to Sanskrit texts, and the intellectual history of South Asia from the premodern to the contemporary period, with a special focus on the history of philology.

Cristina Pecchia was trained at the University of Rome “La Sapienza” (PhD 2003, MA 1991), at Delhi University (MA in Buddhist Studies, 1993), and at the University for Foreigners in Perugia (MA in Italian as a second language, 1995). In the framework of her doctoral studies, she came to Vienna in 2000 to study with Ernst Steinkellner and his team.

Based at the IKGA, she has conducted a research project titled [[Erlösungsweg|''Indian Buddhist epistemology and the path to liberation'']], with funding from the FWF (completed in September 2016). She has previously collaborated to three projects on Philosophy and Medicine in Early Classical India, directed by Karin Preisendanz and based at the University of Vienna and at the Austrian Academy of Sciences (2006–2012). She has received grants and awards from the Italian Foreign Office, the Jan Gonda Foundation, Leiden University, and the Austrian Academy of Sciences.
