He was previously a professor at Harish-Chandra Research Institute (HRI) in Prayagraj, India.

He is known for his work on topological string theory.

Gopakumar was born in 1967 to Jaishree and G. Gopakumar in Kolkata.

His family hails from the southern Indian state of Kerala.

1987

He has the distinction of being ranked 1 in the entrance examination for IIT in 1987.
