SANDHI Research Lab
Where ideas meet, discovery begins.
An independent research lab exploring artificial intelligence and computational science. We investigate difficult problems across vision, language, multimodal AI, and AI for science.
सन्धिsandhi: the place where two things join.
At the boundary, both sides change.
In Sanskrit grammar, sandhi describes what happens where two words meet. Sounds shift, merge, and settle into something that reads as one. We think research works the same way. The most useful ideas rarely come from a single field. They form at the junctions, where methods, disciplines, and people meet and are changed by the meeting.
