Research in Groups

Nurturing Women Researchers

The aim of the IWM Research in Groups programme is to create a strong group of young female researchers across the country. 

  • Each research group will have a senior and a junior mentor, with about five student participants. The topics and mentors for each group are given below.
  • The project engagement will be for a minimum period of one year. The teams will work  under the guidance of the mentors online and offline.
  • There will be two in-person meetings per year, each being one week long. The expenses for these workshops, including travel for all team members, will be borne by IWM.
  • Applications are invited from female PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, advanced students with a master’s degree and college teachers, from all over India.
