BREAKING FRAMES: RESEARCH WITHOUT BORDERS

We are tired of rigid academic frameworks that limit what counts as “research.” We believe PhD students and early-career researchers should have a space to speak freely, experiment, and be heard.

This is YOUR CALL: an invitation to share the ideas, projects, doubts, and provocations that matter most to YOU. Whether your work sits within American Studies, Cultural Studies, English Literature—or wanders outside all categories—you are WELCOME here.

👉 WHY JOIN?

• COMMUNITY: Meet peers who are also navigating the PhD journey.
• FEEDBACK: Get responses from people who truly understand your situation.
• VISIBILITY: Present your project in an environment that values curiosity and risk-taking over rigid “academic boxes.”
• CONNECTIONS: Build networks with other researchers who want to push boundaries.
