MMRC would like to extend an invitation to graduate students from any discipline whose research deals with music to submit proposals for paper presentations. MMRC and KUMARC want to uplift topics from the margins of music. This can take the form of researchers that are often marginalized within their field, research on topics that are outside of the canon, or both.
