Abstract
Transgender and nonbinary (TNB) individuals experience significant marginalization, including in the workplace and higher education. Although the number of TNB scholars and educators is growing, little attention has been given to the supervision of TNB individuals in research contexts. This lack of attention is particularly pronounced for TNB people working on trans-related research projects. Using intersectionality and queer theory, the present study examines the lived experiences of TNB individuals working on cisgender-led research projects, with the goal of enhancing awareness among cisgender researchers on strategies to support the growth of emerging TNB scholars. The importance of these findings is relevant for cisgender educators, researchers, and practitioners who work with TNB individuals and/or lead trans-related projects.
