Emergence: Toward a "State of the Field" Trans Studies Conference

Gabriel Fiandeiro is a third-year PhD student at University of Wisconsin, Madison and received their undergraduate degree from UC Berkeley in 2020, where they concentrated on modernist literature and comics studies. Currently, they focus on pedagogic forms and aesthetics in queer and trans experimental work. More broadly, they are interested in thinking at the intersection of queer, feminist, and trans theory. They also co-lead UW Madison’s Americanist Colloquium, where they highlight queer and trans texts and thinkers. They bring to this project an engagement with trans pedagogical spaces and a commitment to investing in/approaching the field from outside of a binary trans perspective.
