Abhirup Banerjee

Abhirup Banerjee is an Oxford researcher who applies artificial intelligence and computational modelling to cardiovascular diagnosis and care. He completed a computer science PhD in 2017 after degrees in Statistics and received the Indian Science Congress Association's Young Scientist Award in 2017; he coauthored machine-learning studies on SARS-CoV-2 blood tests and chest-X-ray diagnosis in 2020 and 2021. His current work builds cardiovascular digital twins from multimodal clinical data, and he provided technical leadership for a 2026 AI study of hypertension-related organ damage. As of October 2026, he is an Associate Professor and Royal Society University Research Fellow at Oxford, where he leads the MultiMeDIA Lab.

Timeline

  1. 2017

    A computer science PhD

    He completes a PhD in Computer Science in 2017 after earning BSc (Hons) and master's degrees in Statistics.

  2. 2017

    A Young Scientist Award

    In 2017, he receives the Indian Science Congress Association's Young Scientist Award in its Section of Information and Communication Science & Technology, including Computer Sciences.

  3. 2020

    AI from full blood counts

    In 2020, he coauthors a study that uses machine learning and an artificial neural network to identify SARS-CoV-2-positive patients from full blood counts without symptom or history data.
