Blue Origin’s all-female spaceflight crew, which includes pop star Katy Perry , is set to take off this spring .

Jasleen Chana : Behind this aspirational ideal, there is a more problematic story regarding successful women in science and their roles in public.

I am currently focussing on the written memoirs of contemporary women NASA astronauts.

I explore how scientists negotiate ways of communicating images of the scientist through their works.

I examine how they work intertextually to rewrite stereotypes of their discipline.
