Madhuri Raya joins Syneos Health as Global Head, AI & Engineering and Technology Capability Center. Hyderabad, Telangana, India, August 2026 - Syneos Health has appointed Madhuri Raya as Global Head, AI & Engineering and Technology Capability Center, strengthening its technology leadership as the organisation accelerates its AI-enabled strategy. In her new mandate, Raya will focus on scaling engineering capabilities behind Syneos Health's growing AI ecosystem and helping translate technology innovation into practical solutions for biopharmaceutical development. Raya brings more than two decades of experience across software engineering, product engineering, cloud-native technologies, AI/ML-enabled solutions and global engineering leadership. She joins Syneos Health after a long tenure with Optum, where she most recently served as Vice President of Software Engineering. During more than eight years with the organisation, she progressed through senior technology leadership positions, including Director of Product Engineering and Senior Director - Product Engineering. Before Optum, Raya spent more than five years with UnitedHealth Group, serving as Engineering Manager and subsequently Senior Engineering Manager. These roles added to her experience in leading engineering organisations within the healthcare ecosystem and managing increasingly complex technology responsibilities. Earlier in her career, Raya spent more than a decade with the Robert Bosch Research and Technology Center. She worked initially as a Software Engineer before progressing to Senior Research Engineer, a position she held for more than seven years. This foundation in software engineering and research, followed by leadership roles across healthcare technology and product engineering, has shaped a career spanning technical innovation and large-scale engineering management. At Syneos Health, Raya joins at a time when the company is expanding the role of AI and technology across its operations. Her mandate will center on strengthening the engineering capabilities supporting this strategy, bringing together AI, engineering and technology delivery to improve agility, precision and intelligence in addressing customer challenges. She is an alumna of the Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani (BITS Pilani). Syneos Health is a fully integrated biopharmaceutical solutions organisation focused on accelerating customer success. The company combines clinical, commercial and real-world insights to help address evolving market needs and support the delivery of therapies to patients.

Syneos Health positions technology and cross-functional expertise as important enablers in helping customers advance the development and commercialisation of therapies.
Syneos Health expands AI ecosystem with three new platform partnerships. New collaborations with Causaly, Databricks, and Microsoft anchor a broader push to embed artificial intelligence directly into clinical trial decision-making and operational workflows. "When technology is applied precisely at critical decision points, teams can anticipate risk earlier to accelerate development." Syneos Health has announced the continued expansion of its artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem, detailing three platform partnerships designed to embed AI into core clinical development workflows.[1] The three partnerships each target a distinct layer of the clinical development stack. Through a new collaboration with Causaly, Syneos is applying agentic, evidence-based scientific reasoning to accelerate protocol strategy development, feasibility planning, and competitive trial intelligence. Causaly's platform surfaces evidence from a proprietary knowledge graph combining biomedical research and commercial insights. According to the company, the integration has reduced the time it takes to derive insights for study strategy and design by approximately 50%. The partnership with Databricks focuses on the data infrastructure layer. By leveraging the Databricks Data and AI Platform, Syneos has developed a near real-time view of clinical operations that reduces the time from source data capture to review-ready insight from days to hours, enabling faster intervention and more efficient trial execution. The Microsoft collaboration, which builds on a relationship that began in 2023, extends AI adoption through productivity and workflow tools. Syneos has used Microsoft Power Apps and other tools to develop more than 280 agents that integrate with Microsoft 365 Copilot to streamline workflows and support faster decision-making across the organization. "When technology is applied precisely at critical decision points, teams can anticipate risk earlier to accelerate development," said Mike Montello, chief digital and information officer at Syneos Health, in a company press release. Together, the three partnerships are designed to create what Syneos Health describes as a unified intelligence environment - connecting operational, clinical, and real-world data across the development lifecycle. The company noted that all capabilities are deployed with human oversight and governance to ensure responsible use in regulated environments. A broader conversation about AI and site readiness. The Syneos announcement reflects a pattern Applied Clinical Trials has been tracking closely: sponsor investment in AI is accelerating, but questions about how that technology reaches sites - and whether it actually fits their workflows - remain unresolved. In a recent with ACT, Liz Beatty, co-founder and chief strategy officer at Inato, addressed that tension directly.[2] Beatty argued that the industry has consistently made the mistake of building technology for sponsors rather than for sites. "We need to stop, and instead think: how can I enable sites to use this technology to become more efficient and effective in clinical trials, which then helps my trial and my company - not the other way around," she said. On where AI is delivering measurable enrollment impact, Beatty pointed to real-time patient data as the most significant shift. Rather than relying on feasibility questionnaires and sponsor-discounted estimates, AI tools can now identify which specific patients at a given site currently meet study criteria. In a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease case study, than those that did not, and 100% of sites using the tool were able to successfully screen and enroll patients. Looking ahead, Beatty pointed to a structural shift she sees gaining momentum: sponsors moving away from trial-by-trial site planning toward program or cross-asset planning, building deeper site partnerships across multiple studies. This represents a dynamic that could meaningfully change how enrollment bottlenecks are addressed before a trial even begins. References
