  • Wolfson College

As an undergraduate, I jointly studied Government and Neuroscience, where I got the chance to explore the effects of violence on human welfare from a political, biological, and social perspective. At Cambridge, I am excited to build on these experiences and pursue an MPhil in Development Studies. I am enthusiastic about the prospect of working at the Centre of Governance and Human Rights, and Centre for Gender Studies, cutting-edge research networks that bring together a diverse amalgamation of professors, students, and professionals for projects and enriching seminars on topics related to the politics of gender violence, peacebuilding, and health in conflict-affected societies. I am so incredibly honored to join the wider Gates Cambridge community, and am looking forward to growing alongside my peers during my time in the UK! **Nidhi will commence her MPhil study in 2023.
