Courses

Key Research Areas

Driving innovation at the intersection of AI, data science, and healthcare

Blood Diagnostics

Developing AI-assisted solutions for differential diagnosis of peripheral blood smears (PeBSI) and detection of blood cancers. Our patented methods for Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) detection in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia use cognitive computing to identify markers from blood samples, guiding therapeutics and improving patient outcomes.

Anti-Microbial Resistance

AMRSense is our flagship socio-technological platform for AI-augmented antimicrobial resistance stewardship and surveillance, which won the Trinity Challenge Joint 2nd Prize. We are building a scalable, ABDM-compliant Antimicrobial Resistance Tracker in collaboration with Biocon Foundation and participating in the Indo-Swiss AMR Innovation Dialogue.

Genomics

Our genomics research spans multi-omics studies correlating clinical outcomes with immunological response, mutational status, and vaccination data. We develop semi-supervised instance segmentation models for blood cancer image analysis and leverage computational approaches to understand disease mechanisms at the molecular level.

Computational Drug Discovery

We apply predictive AI models for drug development, including identification of therapeutically actionable mutations in Wilson's disease (ATP7B protein). Through our MoU with AIST Japan, we investigate molecular mechanisms of biological activity of natural compounds using computational approaches and cell culture systems.
