Summary
Woojae Chang is a Professional AI Scientist based in Seoul with 10 years of experience applying deep learning to drug discovery and precision medicine. He specializes in transformers, multimodal and molecular representation learning, and building large-scale, distributed training pipelines that emphasize interpretability and real-world impact. His work spans academic and industry settings—from Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology and Standigm to his current role at Gradiant Bioconvergence—and includes publications on domain adaptation, graph transformers, and quantum-informed molecular representations. Comfortable at the intersection of biology and AI, he leverages self-supervised, transfer, and multi-task learning to tackle noisy, heterogeneous biomedical data. He changed his name from Woong-gi Chang in 2023, so some prior work may appear under that name.
