M Thomas Antony

I am a Medical Doctor practicing as a General Surgeon. Studying about Syriac Christianity, especially Thomasine Christianity has been a passion for me. I have been stimulated by NSC Network to learn more through its articles and discussions and have been an active collaborator.
I have a personal blog www.thomaschristians.blogspot.com. I have published several papers in the internet blogs, books and journals. I have presented a paper in the XII Symposium Syriacum organised by the Pontifical oriental Institute, Rome in August 2016.
