My work has predominantly focused on gendered depictions on-screen, nationalist interventions, and television studies in Turkey. While I specialize in this area, I have many research interests. I have published on the relationship between television, disability studies, and critical theory, and a second television-related article will be forthcoming. I also have a published chapter on US animation films and capitalist strategies.
