Life Sciences Research Scientist (PhD): Wet Lab & Computational Biology

Temporary

micro1

PhD-level biologists write difficult life science problems with verifiable answers and review AI outputs for scientific accuracy and depth. They build grading rubrics and model answers drawn from literature and established methods, across fields from genomics and proteomics to drug discovery, and judge whether proposed experiments or analysis pipelines are sound.

What you would do

  • Write expert-level life science problems with clear, verifiable solutions
  • Judge AI outputs on scientific correctness, rigor and depth of reasoning
  • Develop rubrics and reference answers based on primary literature
  • Explain your reasoning in writing so other experts can validate it

What the listing asks for

  • Completed PhD in biology, genetics, biochemistry, bioinformatics or another closely linked life science field
  • Practical lab research work at an academic institution, institute or company
  • Professional written and spoken English at C1 or higher
  • Preferred: personal wet lab work such as PCR, cell culture, Western blot or CRISPR
  • Preferred: postdoc or faculty-level research, publications, and a PhD from a leading university

Suits professionals who hold a life sciences PhD and have worked in a research lab, ideally with both experimental and computational exposure.

The listing does not state a rate. Where: Remote, worldwide. Contract work for micro1, a company that hires experts for AI training projects.

Applications go through micro1's own site. AI Trainer Guide is an independent guide to AI training work, not micro1 or its recruiter. The apply link on our page is a referral link: micro1 may pay us if it hires you, at no cost to you.
