Background
Her research and teaching interests include Japanese and Chinese language film and media; global media studies; inter-Asia cultural studies; memory and transnational film/media; critical approaches to digital media in the context of globalization; and film and media’s intersection with concerns of space, place and mobility. Her work is grounded in the historical and contemporary stakes of exchange in East Asian and Asia Pacific screen media, and attentive to the dynamics through which media theory is negotiated across a range of disciplinary, critical and cultural contexts. A recent recipient of the Social Science Research Council (SSRC/JSPS) Postdoctoral Fellowship, she is currently writing a manuscript on Asia Pacific film, television and media co-productions in the second half of the twentieth century. She also has experience in the instruction and production of multimedia scholarship. Professor DeBoer is also faculty within the International Studies Program and Department of East Asian Studies.
