Purbita Das
I am a senior research scholar and teaching assistant at Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Bhopal, in India. I work in the domain of Health Humanities where I primarily focus on the multiple representations of fear and stigma through bodies in HIV/AIDS and COVID-19 narratives in India. My research interests include but are not limited to body studies, gender and sexuality, postcolonial studies, and posthumanism.
