• M.B.B.S. from the University of London (United Kingdom), 1983

Dr. Banerjee's research centers on innovative optical techniques for early cancer detection, with primary focus on gastrointestinal malignancies. His work pioneers the use of native fluorophores for optical detection of gastrointestinal cancer and develops receptor-targeted imaging methodologies to improve diagnostic precision. This research bridges biomedical engineering, clinical medicine, and optical sciences to create non-invasive diagnostic tools that could transform cancer screening protocols.
