In 2015 she gave the John Locke Lectures in Oxford’s Trinity Term, and for that period was Visiting Fellow at All Souls College. Langton was The Mind Senior Research Fellow for 2015-16.
March 11, 2010, Harvard Astronomy Professors Owen Gingerich, Abraham Loeb, and Howard A. Smith discussed with W.L. Craig whether the universe suggests evidence for God.
