Dr. Allison Graham, professor of communication at the University of Memphis, has been awarded a prestigious Leverhulme Trust grant. It is a national award for scholars from outside the United Kingdom to enable them to spend time conducting research at British universities and collaborating with British academic colleagues.

The application was initiated by the School of American Studies at the University of Nottingham, the top-rated American Studies program in the U.K. The award, which provides significant funds for research, will enable Graham to spend six months in Britain next year giving presentations at Cambridge, Liverpool and Leeds, consulting with colleagues, and enhancing the research environment at those universities.

The grant also will allow Graham to explore the relevant archives for her continuing research in American Studies. More details about the Leverhulme Trust and the grant are available online at leverhulme.org.uk.
