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.
He has the distinction of being ranked 1 in the entrance examination for IIT in 1987.
Gopakumar obtained his integrated M.Sc. degree in physics from the IIT Kanpur in 1992.
He completed his Ph.D. from Princeton University in 1997 under the supervision of David Gross.
After a few years as a research associate at Harvard University, he joined HRI in 2001.
He was also a visiting fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, New Jersey from 2001 to 2004.

Later, his work focussed on attempts to derive the AdS/CFT correspondence, and on minimal model holography (with Matthias Gaberdiel).
In recent years, he has made important contributions to higher spin theories and their connections with string theory (with Matthias Gaberdiel).
He has also recently worked on the Conformal bootstrap.
