Jingchao (Chris) Ma is a current doctoral student in Philosophy at Villanova University. She is interested in forming a feminist understanding of subjectivity, social power, and bodily experience, and thereby creating new ways of imagining political futures.  For her dissertation project, she examines the notion of border and territory and the analogy of spatiality when applied to genders and gendered bodies. Her research draws from various resources, including phenomenology, existentialism, post-structuralism, and psychoanalysis.

Besides her academic work, she is also involved in the activism scene. She participated in a feminist theater work in her college in Shanghai, and currently serves as a board member of Chinese Lala (LBTI) Alliance.
