Elliot Bentine

Elliot Bentine is a Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, affiliated with the Department of Physics. He also holds a Senior Postdoc position in the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine. His work integrates quantum physics and medical imaging, focusing on the Vascular Imaging Tool for the Auricle (VITA), a non-invasive optical system for cardiovascular health assessment.

• Collaborates with Dr. Lapidaire (Cardiovascular Medicine) and previously worked in Professor Chris Foot's quantum gases group.
• Funded by the Royal Academy of Engineering, Department for Science Innovation and Technology (DSIT), British Heart Foundation, and other translational research programs.

His research spans quantum optics, ultra-cold matter, and computational simulation, with a recent emphasis on medical device commercialization. Bentine also develops open-source physics simulations (e.g., AtomECS, CRFAP) and Unity-based tools like ProPixelizer, which has sold over 35,000 copies.

Scientific Awards:

• Royal Academy of Engineering Enterprise Fellowship

He contributes to academic and creative communities through outreach demos, including browser-based simulations of evaporative cooling and magnet interactions.
