Ali ShahmohammadiPh.D.

Takeda Pharmaceutical Inc. · Greater Boston, MA

• Designed and deployed a production agentic AI system for ontology curation — a multi-agent LangGraph pipeline with human-in-the-loop governance — cutting curation cycle times significantly.
• Built MCP-style scientific data connectors integrating ELN, LIMS, and AWS into a validated, agent-ready data layer across R&D domains.
• Architected a next-generation R&D data catalog with automated quality checks, lineage, and metadata management that gates data before it reaches AI pipelines.
• Led enterprise FAIR data strategy and delivered FAIR Studio (Pistoia Alliance), an industry-alliance product operationalizing FAIR assessment at scale.
• Built a digital twin for continuous manufacturing of a small-molecule API, integrating unit-operation mechanistic models.
• Established strategic research partnerships with MIT, BYU, Brown, and Purdue on PINNs and in-silico development.

Moderna Inc. · Greater Boston, MA

• Developed ML models for mRNA drug-substance and drug-product stability and shelf-life prediction (ICH-compliant).
• Optimized the IVT reaction for mRNA process characterization using combined ML and fundamental modeling.
• Led comparability and product-specification projects through process scale-up phases.
• Contributed to IND and BLA submissions through statistical analysis and documentation.

The University of Texas at Austin · Austin, TX

• Developed fundamental models for thin-film gallium phosphate on silicon for plasma-etch optimization.
• Built model-based DoE tools in R Shiny for plasma-etch process optimization.
• Created a first-principles model for the viscoelastic properties of adhesive soft particles.
• Performed molecular-dynamics simulations with 100,000+ particles.
