Arkaprava Banerjee is a researcher (funded by the Life Sciences Research Board, DRDO, Govt. of India) working at the Drug Theoretics and Cheminformatics Laboratory, Department of Pharmaceutical Technology, Jadavpur University, Kolkata. Mr. Banerjee has twenty-two research articles published in reputed journals and two book chapters with overall citations of 392 and an h-index of 11 (Scopus). His ORCID identifier is 0000-0001-8468-0784, His expertise lies in similarity-based cheminformatic approaches like Read-Across and Read-Across Structure-Activity Relationship (RASAR), a novel method that combines the concept of QSAR and Read-Across. Mr. Banerjee is also a Java programmer who has developed various cheminformatic tools based on QSAR, Read-Across, and RASAR, and the tools are freely available from the DTC Laboratory Supplementary Website. He received the Prof. Anupam Sengupta Bronze Medal from Jadavpur University for securing the highest marks in Pharmaceutical Chemistry in the MPharm Examination. He has also received a special diploma awarded by the Institute of Biomedical Chemistry, Moscow, Russia, and the ASCCT Travel Award from the American Society for Cellular and Computation Toxicology. Together with Prof. Kunal Roy, he has been one of the first researchers to develop quantitative models using similarity and error-based descriptors (quantitative/classification Read-Across Structure-Activity Relationship: q-RASAR/c-RASAR models) with applications in drug design, materials science, and property modeling. Recently, he coauthored a book on q-RASAR, which was published by Springer.
