Jacqueline Valeri is a Senior Data Scientist at Moderna with seven years of experience applying machine learning and computational chemistry to small-molecule drug discovery and pre-clinical research. She develops custom algorithms and iteratively designs molecular libraries, partnering closely with experimentalists to advance projects like vaccine adjuvants, ionizable lipids for mRNA LNPs, and engineered DNA-binding proteins. A PhD in Biological Engineering from MIT and a Siebel Scholar, she blends rigorous academic training with hands-on translational impact in industry. Based in Cambridge, MA, she brings deep domain expertise in protein and small-molecule modeling coupled with practical ML deployment in lab-driven campaigns. Outside the lab she puzzles, bakes, skis, and reads sci-fi/fantasy, reflecting a creative, methodical approach to problem solving.
