THE LIFE AND TIMES OF KAMALA BHAGVAT SOHONIE - THE UNSUNG HERO OF SCIENCE IN INDIA. Published article

The second of my articles for RESONANCE.

Kamala Sohonie battled gender-based prejudice to gain entry into India’s premier research institution. She went on to have a dazzling career while working with the world’s foremost biochemists at Cambridge and later became one of India’s premier scientists. Her research immensely contributed to the discipline of Nutrition and Dietetics. A socially-committed individual, her scientific projects tried to be in sync with the needs of her country. In this article, we present facets of her colourful life – her passions, struggles and ideals.

this is an inspiring tale, and I am so glad I chronicled it. Hugely grateful to Prof. Sohonie's son and daughter-in-law for their support.
