Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSugat Dabholkar is a research scientist in Learning Sciences with nine years of interdisciplinary experience designing and studying learning environments that shape how learners relate to and produce knowledge. He completed a PhD at Northwestern, taught undergraduate courses there, and has held research positions at Northwestern, Rutgers (postdoc focusing on justice-centered, community-based science curricula for middle schoolers), and Tufts. His work bridges theory and practice—designing classroom and community programs that foreground learner agency, disciplinary participation, and equity—and draws on earlier experience in HR, corporate L&D, and grassroots science education across India and South Africa. Comfortable translating research into curriculum and program design, he is particularly interested in how roles shift between knowledge recipients, evaluators, and producers. An unexpected thread through his career is combining quantitative lab-trained thinking (genetic networks) with human-centered design to craft learning experiences that scale in community contexts.
