Molecular and Cell Biology Expert

About the role

About the Engagement Office Hours is seeking experienced molecular and cell biology researchers to contribute to an active AI research initiative focused on evaluating how advanced AI systems approach real-world biological research problems. As a Molecular & Cell Biology Expert, you’ll use your own domain expertise to develop scientifically grounded research problems, evaluate how AI models respond to them, and create expert-quality solutions that establish the correct answer and reasoning. This is a fully remote, asynchronous opportunity designed for scientists interested in applying their research expertise to the development and evaluation of next-generation AI systems.

Responsibilities

• Develop original biological research problems grounded in your area of expertise
• Create detailed solutions and supporting reasoning for each problem
• Test problems against advanced AI models and evaluate model performance
• Identify where model responses succeed or fail from a scientific and reasoning perspective
• Incorporate feedback and revisions to ensure submissions meet project quality standards
• Apply your research experience to help create high-quality expert data for AI evaluation
