Professor of Neuroscience at Queen Mary University, London and Wellcome Trust Career Development Fellow at University of Oxford
Professor Abhishek (Abhi) Banerjee is a neuroscientist affiliated with both the University of Oxford and Queen Mary, University of London, whose research aims to unravel how neural circuits implement flexible decision-making and how their dysfunction contributes to neurodevelopmental disorders. In his Adaptive Decisions Lab, his team combines rodent behavioural tasks with mesoscopic and two-photon calcium imaging and, optogenetics, to probe micro- and mesoscopic circuit dynamics. They also integrate computational models (reinforcement learning, Bayesian approaches) and human neuroimaging (EEG, fMRI) to bridge insights across scale and species. Their work has implications for understanding the mechanisms underlying altered behaviour in developmental brain disorders.
