Science and technology has been in the forefront of transforming the Indian economic structure helping India evolve as a globally competitive economic powerhouse. So much of contemporary technology is based on the sciences, particularly such disciplines as physics, chemistry, biology, and other sciences that deal with the study, measurement, and understanding of natural phenomena. Learn about the technological advancements and scientific achievements that so greatly influence our lifestyle and impact our lives. The "turn to technology" helped to cement an already growing awareness of underlying unity among the various emerging STS (Science and Technology Studies) programs. More recently, there has been an associated turn to materiality, whereby the socio-technical and material co-produce each other. This is especially evident in work in STS analyzes of bio-medicine. |
