His most recent works are Dice and Gods on the Silk Road: Chinese Buddhist Dice Divination in Transcultural Context (Brill, 2021; with Constance A. Cook and Zhao Lu) and Producing Buddhist Sutras in Ninth-Century Tibet: The “Sutra of Limitless Life” and Its Dunhuang Copies Kept at the British Library (De Gruyter, 2025; with Lewis Doney).

Jetsun Deleplanque is currently a Shinjo Ito Postdoctoral Fellow in Buddhist Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He completed his PhD in 2022 at the University of Chicago’s Divinity School in the Department of the History of Religions.
