HeyDonto Labs is the culmination of a life's work that started before Reza Nehzati was a teenager.
At fourteen, Reza Nehzati took Iran's national college entry exam, a test written for sixteen and seventeen year olds, and posted the twelfth highest score in the country. He entered college early. He holds a PhD in AI and machine learning. The work since has run through deep learning optimization, quantum-inspired computation and the geometry of learning. He is first author on every paper the lab has indexed, sole author on all but one, and sole named inventor on every patent it has filed. Axiomera and Conduit both run in production on the harmonization pipeline he architected.
His Data Field Theory framework was published in Frontiers in Big Data in June 2026, handled by an editor at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and reviewers at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and Université Ibn Zohr.
The evolutionary neural networks application, USPTO 19/181,522, allowed April 2026 with the issue fee paid.
His federated learning study predicted 30-day hospital readmissions across 47 US healthcare institutions, published in Elsevier's Informatics in Medicine Unlocked.
His record outside the lab includes a wearable graphene-patterned gas sensor in Results in Optics, a graphene terahertz electronic nose in Sensors and Actuators A: Physical and a wireless semi-implantable brain-recording microsystem in Next Research. ORCID · Google Scholar.
