We are sharing a specialised opportunity for advanced biology researchers and graduate-level experts to contribute to large language model evaluation and training through challenging scientific problem design, rigorous reasoning, and high-quality solution development.
Selected professionals will design and solve complex biology problems, develop structured step-by-step explanations, identify areas where advanced AI systems struggle, and collaborate with research teams on evaluation strategies and benchmarks spanning undergraduate through doctoral-level biology.
Key Responsibilities
Biology Problem Development
Design challenging problems across advanced biology domains
Create tasks that probe limitations in scientific reasoning
Develop questions requiring conceptual abstraction and multi-step analysis
Incorporate data interpretation and biological problem-solving where appropriate
Maintain suitable difficulty across undergraduate through PhD-level topics
Scientific Reasoning & Solution Development
Solve complex biology problems accurately and efficiently
Produce clear and rigorous step-by-step solutions
Explain assumptions and intermediate reasoning explicitly
Apply structured scientific reasoning to challenging biological questions
Present conclusions in a format suitable for evaluation and review
Model Evaluation & Error Analysis
Evaluate how language models perform on biology-focused tasks
Identify recurring weaknesses in conceptual understanding
Analyse errors involving abstraction, multi-step reasoning, and data interpretation
Distinguish factual mistakes from reasoning or interpretation failures
Provide structured observations to support model improvement
Benchmark & Evaluation Design
Contribute to new biology evaluation benchmarks
Align problem design with specific research objectives
Develop tasks spanning different levels of scientific complexity
Refine evaluation criteria based on observed model behaviour
Support consistent assessment across advanced biology domains
Research Collaboration & Technical Communication
