Autor

Namrata Gupta has been working on gender in science and engineering since 2002 when she obtained her PhD in Sociology (IIT Kanpur). Her research focuses on how the participation and rise of women scientists in academia and research laboratories are affected by the organizational aspects, patriarchal socio-cultural norms, and a lack of universalism in science. Her research also includes the study of women engineering students, the relationship between gender and technology, and gender and high-tech entrepreneurship. She has several publications to her credit in collaboration with renowned international researchers. She has been a recipient of several fellowships and grants from the Indian Council of Social Science Research (ICSSR). She has also been a member of the Editorial Board of the journal Work, Employment and Society since 2021 and an Editorial Board member of the UNESCO publication A Braided River: The Universe of Indian Women in Science (Jan 2022); and invited to participate in national and international workshops including those funded by the NSF (the US).
