Geraldine L. Cochran studies equity and inclusion in physics education, examining how race, disability, and other identity factors shape students' experiences and readiness in physics courses and graduate programs. Her work applies frameworks like critical race theory, community cultural wealth, and intersectionality to understand and improve physics education for underrepresented groups. This research combines physics education research with social science methods to address structural and cultural barriers in STEM.
