Dr. Cheung researches how contemporary agents use Buddhist doctrine and ritual practices in Chinese and American contexts as well as transnational networks. He has published on Buddhists engaging with healing, meditation, ethical dilemmas, economics, capitalism, secularism, science, and technology. His work appears in The Journal of the American Academy of Religion; Religion, State and Society; The Journal of Buddhist Ethics; Miracles: An Exercise in Comparative Philosophy of Religion; Teaching 91pornԭ�� Asia in a Time of Pandemic; Buddhism and Medicine: An Anthology of Modern and Contemporary Sources; Studies in Chinese Religions; and Handbook of Ethical Foundations of Mindfulness. 

Dr. Cheung is co-editor of , forthcoming by the University of Hawai'i Press scheduled for 2024. In that volume, he contributes a chapter on a contemporary Chinese American religious healer and his healing community in the New York City area. The chapter argues that the research subject's healing of vastly disparate ailments-including a cancerous tumor, dislocated jaw, balance disorder, and amnesia-lends him legitimacy when he teaches Buddhism. The healer spreads religion to his community by explaining karmic causes of disease and prescribing Buddhist healing rituals. Dr. Cheung's next major research project is a monograph that examines this healer and community in detail.
