About Prolific

Prolific is building the biggest pool of quality human data in the world.

Role Overview

We are looking for Biology Experts and Life Science Professionals to join our Expert Network to help train and evaluate cutting‑edge AI models using real scientific expertise. Candidates will complete a brief assessment and, if successful, will be paid to train and evaluate AI models.

Responsibilities

• Evaluate AI‑generated science: review model responses to complex biological queries for factual accuracy, reasoning, and adherence to current scientific consensus.
• Fact‑check technical claims: validate citations from public databases (e.g., PubMed, NCBI) and ensure AI‑generated summaries of research papers are accurate.
• Assess experimental logic: critique AI‑proposed experimental designs, including controls, variables, and troubleshooting steps for lab procedures.
• Annotate scientific data: identify and correct errors in model‑generated biological sequences, chemical structures, or taxonomy classifications.
• Ensure ethical alignment: verify AI responses regarding bioethics and sensitive biological data comply with professional and safety standards.

Qualifications

• Education: BS, MS, or PhD in Biology, Molecular Biology, Genetics, Bioinformatics, Pharmacology, or a related Life Sciences field.
• Professional Experience: Years of experience in laboratory research, clinical trials, biotech, or academic instruction.
• Scientific Literacy: Ability to interpret complex biological data, peer‑reviewed journals, and technical protocols with high precision.
• Critical Thinking: Sharp eye for identifying scientific hallucinations such as incorrect protein folding logic, misapplied genetic sequences, or flawed experimental designs.
• Methodological Knowledge: Deep understanding of the scientific method, statistical significance in biological contexts, and regulatory standards.
• Communication: Ability to explain intricate biological pathways or cellular mechanisms in clear, accurate technical prose.
• A PayPal account to receive payment.

Compensation

Researchers pay up to $60 per hour. Tasks require one hour of uninterrupted work, though many are shorter.
