Summary
Mojtaba S is a postdoctoral AI lead scientist with a decade of experience applying deep learning and computer vision to biomedical imaging and computational biology, currently splitting time between Stanford and Harvard. He has driven scalable ML operations in biomedical research—improving computational efficiency by around 40%—and led NIH- and NSF-funded projects in retinal morphology and AI glaucoma detection. His work spans academia and industry, including drug-discovery ML at Novartis where he advanced multi-task pQSAR platforms and privacy-preserving collaboration simulations. With 30+ peer-reviewed publications and patented algorithms used in climate and health predictive modeling, he combines rigorous research with production-minded engineering. Mojtaba mentors early-career researchers (50+ mentees) and experiments with emerging tech—recently exploring quantum-enhanced data analysis—to push large-scale, real-world AI deployments. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he focuses on sustainable, clinically impactful AI solutions that bridge theory and practice.
