Odd, I know a fair few PhD students and post docs and they all researched what they wanted to research. They either didn’t have a professor or they found one who offered the right subject.

You can’t do a PhD without an advisor. It is possible that the advisor doesn’t care, and signs off on everything their students write, but an advisor has to exist, at least on paper.
