“Success is not the work of one, but the work of many” 

Dr Soroush Safaei

Senior Research Fellow

Soroush recently joined Matai Medical Research Institute as a Senior Research Fellow to lead the Digital Twin Dementia Study in collaboration with Auckland Bioengineering institute, to better understand the underlying mechanisms of the neurodegenerative disease and inform early treatment and lifestyle changes. He will also contribute to Marsden and HRC projects by developing computational models linking MRI data to diagnostic index for intracranial pressure.

 

Soroush currently is a Senior Principal Scientist and a member of Model-Informed Drug Discovery and Development team at Sanofi, specialized in developing mechanistic computational models for biologics that enable effective evaluation and decision-making in pharmaceutical R&D. He applies his expertise in computational physiology, pharmacology, and medical imaging to design and implement models that integrate and synthesize physiological and biological processes.
