I work at the intersections of psychoanalysis, trauma, caste, and cultural memory.

​

I am the author of Jacques Lacan: From Clinic to Culture (Orient BlackSwan, 2018) and the co-editor of Dalit Studies: Key Terms and Concepts (Routledge, 2026) and Holocaust vs. Popular Culture: Interrogating Incompatibility and Universalization (Routledge, 2023). 

​​

My research has appeared in leading peer-reviewed journals and has been presented at international conferences and workshops hosted by academic institutions in India, Bangladesh, Belgium, Croatia, Germany, Hungary, and the United Kingdom.

​

My work has received international recognition, including:

• the Seal of Excellence from the European Commission for the Horizon Europe Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowship

• the Lower Saxony Memorials Foundation (Germany) grants,

• the Open Society University Network (OSUN) grants, and

• the University College London Global Engagement Fund.​

 

My research contributes to interdisciplinary debates on literary form, cultural identity, memory, and the politics of marginality.
