Preface

Women in Science – New Frontiers of Research

Since the International Women's Day, a global event celebrating the achievements of women, is celebrated on 8 March, the month of March has always been considered a special one for women. The day also calls for action to accelerate gender parity in all walks of life. It is therefore a pleasure to present, in this subsequent month, this special section of Current Science that focuses on the contributions of women scientists working in India and celebrate their achievements.
