About

Dr. Samarjeet J. Pattnaik is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and healthcare education, with a particular focus on oral health. His most cited work, "Role of robotics and artificial intelligence in oral health education: Knowledge, perception and attitude of dentists in India" (2023, 15 citations), represents a landmark study that systematically examines how dental professionals in India perceive and adopt AI-driven technologies. This research provides critical insights into the readiness of the healthcare sector for technological transformation, revealing both the potential and the barriers to integrating robotics and AI into dental education and practice. Dr. Pattnaik’s contributions are especially significant for understanding disease dynamics and humanized knowledge systems—how machines can replicate complex cognitive tasks traditionally requiring human expertise. His work bridges the gap between cutting-edge computational methods and real-world clinical applications, offering a roadmap for modernizing oral health curricula. By quantifying attitudes and knowledge gaps among practitioners, Dr. Pattnaik has laid essential groundwork for future AI adoption in dentistry, making his research indispensable for educators, policymakers, and technologists aiming to revolutionize healthcare training.
