About Gupta-Klinsky India Institute at Johns Hopkins University - India RISE Fellowship

India RISE Fellowship (Research & Innovation STEMM Empowerment) is a 12-month program that equips the next generation of women leaders in science with advanced research training, dedicated mentorship, and leadership development opportunities. Conceptualized under the aegis of the U.S.-India Alliance for Women’s Economic Empowerment, and backed by Johns Hopkins University’s Gupta-Klinsky India Institute (GKII) in collaboration with leading Indian institutions, India RISE addresses the critical “leaky pipeline” in STEMM by supporting women at a career stage when many risk leaving the scientific workforce.
