Clinical, Microbiome & Translational Research Scientist (PhD)
micro1
PhD scientists in microbiome and translational research write difficult problems with verifiable solutions, check AI answers for subtle scientific errors and build rubrics and model answers drawn from primary literature. Topics include metagenomics, host-microbiome analysis, biomarkers and clinical genomics. Work is reviewed through feedback and peer review.
What you would do
- Design expert-level scientific problems with clear, verifiable solutions
- Assess AI answers on correctness, rigor and depth of reasoning
- Prepare scoring rubrics and model answers based on primary literature
- Explain your reasoning in writing so other experts can validate it
What the listing asks for
- Doctorate in a field like microbiology, bioinformatics, computational biology, immunology, epidemiology or biomedical sciences
- Practical research work in an academic or industry laboratory
- Professional written and spoken English at C1 or higher
- Preferred: microbiome tools such as QIIME2, Kraken2 or MetaPhlAn
- Preferred: Python or R programming and a publication record
Suits professionals who hold a relevant PhD with lab or computational research experience in microbiome or clinical genomics and write clear explanations.
