His academic journey includes an M.A. from the University of Ottawa (2015) and a B.Soc.Sci. from the same institution (2012). Dr. Midzain-Gobin's research centers on how settler colonialism persists in contemporary political structures and how Indigenous peoples revitalize governance practices to challenge colonial sovereignty.

His scholarly output reveals a consistent focus across Indigenous politics, settler colonial theory, and decolonial international thought. The 15 most recent publications demonstrate his engagement with critical questions of sovereignty, Indigenous governance, and resistance across multiple disciplinary contexts including political science, international relations, security studies, and Indigenous studies.
