Changing economic and legal circumstances alongside humanitarian crises are shifting the politics and histories of borders today, and reshaping the interdisciplinary field of border studies. For this Matrix on Point panel, we asked UC Berkeley PhD candidates to share their ongoing research on borders and migration.

Join us on April 20 for a Matrix on Point panel featuring Pauline White Meeusen, Ph.D. candidate in Jurisprudence and Social Policy at UC Berkeley; Gisselle Perez-Leon, PhD candidate in the UC Berkeley Department of History; and Adriana P. Ramirez, a sixth-year Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Sociology at UC Berkeley. The panel will be moderated by Irene Bloemraad, Class of 1951 Professor, Thomas Garden Barnes Chair of Canadian Studies & Director of the Berkeley Interdisciplinary Migration Initiative (BIMI), which is a co-sponsor of this event.

This will be a hybrid (in-person and online) event. Please indicate below whether you will join us in-person. We will send a Zoom link to all registrants prior to the event.
