This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Engage with sophisticated language models on issues related to viral transmission dynamics and associated public health matters.

• Record instances of model failures to enhance reasoning capabilities.

• Interact with models regarding real-life viral transmission situations and theoretical inquiries.

• Assess the factual correctness and logical integrity of model outputs.

• Document reproducible error patterns.

• Propose enhancements for prompt engineering and evaluation metrics.

• Assist in the development of high-quality training datasets for AI aimed at education, infectious disease management, and global public health.

⛳️ Requirements

• Proficiency in viral transmission dynamics, epidemiology, host-pathogen interactions, environmental influences, vector biology, infection control, and outbreak investigation.

• Understanding of viral transmission methods, reproductive rates (R₀), superspreading occurrences, viral shedding, aerosol and contact transmission, prevention techniques, and modeling of transmission trends.

• Capability to engage in discussions with advanced language models about realistic viral transmission scenarios and theoretical topics.

• Competence in verifying factual accuracy and logical consistency.

• Skill in documenting reproducible error patterns.

• Ability to recommend enhancements to prompt engineering and evaluation metrics.

• Effective metacognitive communication skills (“demonstrating your thought process”).

• A PhD in virology, epidemiology, microbiology, public health, or a related life sciences discipline is preferred.

• Evidence of peer-reviewed publications, practical research in viral transmission, or experience in outbreak response and infection prevention indicates a strong fit.

• Access to a secure computer and high-speed internet connection.

• Geographic location will influence final compensation offer.
