What does an education and career in science look like from the inside? What does it really mean to be a woman in science? Is a career in science compatible with marriage, motherhood, hobbies, and work-life balance?
There is so much more to a life in science than grades, ranks, jobs, and accomplishments. Yet many aspiring scientists don’t know which questions to ask, hesitate to seek guidance, or feel that some questions simply don’t have answers.
The Real Deal offers a warm and honest glimpse into the life of a contemporary woman scientist in India. Through real stories from medicine and research, it opens a window into the everyday realities, joys, and challenges of building a scientific career. These stories, told with humour and hindsight, are woven with case studies and research-backed insights to help aspiring scientists-particularly girls and women-understand the broader conversations shaping science today.
