Sajan B Patel

MBBS BSc (Hons)


Academic Specialised Foundation Doctor

  • Academic Specialised Foundation Doctor at Oxford University and OUH NHS Foundation Trust
  • Medical Teaching Associate at Green Templeton College

Dr Sajan B Patel is an Academic Specialised Foundation Doctor with a research focus on applied artificial intelligence (AI) in dermatology and oncology. His work sits at the interface of clinical medicine, data science, and translational AI, with an emphasis on the safe and clinically grounded deployment of AI systems.


He is involved in the TrustedMDT study, a multi-agent artificial intelligence system developed by researchers at the University of Oxford to support cancer treatment planning during multidisciplinary team (MDT) meetings. Through a strategic collaboration with Microsoft and Oxford University Innovation, TrustedMDT has been integrated into Microsoft Teams and is being piloted in 2026 at Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, representing one of the earliest deployments of agentic AI within a clinically realistic tumour board environment using real patient data.


Within the wider TrustedMDT programme, Sajan leads the development of the synthetic oncology SOCRATES dataset. This dataset supports clinical benchmarking and evaluation of AI systems for multidisciplinary cancer decision-making, while addressing challenges related to data access, governance, and generalisability.


Prior to moving to Oxford, he obtained his medical degree and a BSc in Surgical Design, Technology, and Innovation from Imperial College London.


Outside of his clinical and research work, Sajan is an ambassador for Just Like Us, the LGBT+ young people’s charity.
