About the Role:
- Contribute to the technical approach for evaluating how AI agents can help diagnose, treat, conduct research, and perform target discovery in rare and progressive disease.
- Build ground-truth benchmark datasets drawn from studies, your experience, and novel work that rigorously test whether agents can perform critical analytical and interpretative steps.
- Work with scientists, physician-scientists, software engineers, and computational biologists across multiple benchmarks.
Requirements:

- Proficiency in Python and/or R for biological data analysis, or expert-level experience in experimental or clinical design, with deep scientific or clinical expertise in relevant disease areas.
