TheLifeofScience.com started in 2016 as a blog, a pet project following two freelance science writers Aashima Freidog and Nandita Jayaraj as they journaled biographies of women scientists they met while hopping across laboratories and research institutions in India. The project has since gathered many more voices. The passion project, born out of the desire to see and hear femme stories from Indian science in the media, has evolved into a collective made of a fluid team and a broadening network of freelancers that includes science communicators, scientists, graduate students, journalists, artists and multimedia content creators. We see ourselves as a science media platform focused on contemporary research and stories of scientific pursuit intersecting with various societal barriers in India. Our attempt is to answer questions like: How is Indian science progressing? What are the challenges minorities face? Who are the womxn researchers in India? What kind of work are they doing? What are their stories?
