About

Divya Teja Thigulla is a rising scholar in transportation logistics and urban mobility, with a focused interest in the human dimensions of last-mile delivery systems. Her research critically examines how socio-demographic factors—such as gender, age, urbanity level, and household size—shape the acceptance and adoption of emerging delivery technologies. In her highly cited 2025 work, *Understanding the impact of socio-demographic differences on acceptance of last-mile delivery technologies: A comparative analysis*, Thigulla provides a nuanced framework for understanding why different population segments prefer specific delivery options, including night and weekend deliveries. This study, already garnering 3 citations shortly after publication, offers actionable insights for policymakers and logistics firms aiming to design equitable, user-centric delivery solutions. By bridging behavioral science with supply chain innovation, Thigulla’s contributions help ensure that the rapid growth of e-commerce does not leave underserved communities behind. Her work is particularly valuable for students and researchers exploring the intersection of technology adoption, social equity, and urban logistics.
