– **Geriatric Medicine** (aging biology, senolytics, lifespan extension)

– **Neurosurgery** (brain–machine interfaces, microsurgery, neuro-oncology)

– **Cardiothoracic Surgery** (artificial hearts, xenotransplantation)

– **Vascular Surgery** (robotics, endovascular innovation)

– **Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery** (tissue engineering, transplantation)

– **Pediatric Subspecialties** including **Neonatology** & **Pediatric Hematology-Oncology**

– **Neurology & Subspecialties** (stroke, epilepsy, neurodegeneration, neuromuscular medicine)

– **Psychiatry** (neuropsychiatry, addiction, computational psychiatry)

– **Medical Genetics & Genomics** (CRISPR, rare diseases, precision medicine)

– **Dermatology** (immunodermatology, melanoma, genetic skin disease)

– **Pathology** (molecular & computational pathology, AI in histology)

– **Radiology** (diagnostic & interventional, theranostics, imaging AI)

– **Nuclear Medicine** (theranostic agents, PET tracers)

– **Anesthesiology / Pain Medicine** (novel anesthetics, neural modulation, consciousness science)

– **PM&R (Rehabilitation Medicine)** (exoskeletons, robotics, neuroplasticity)

– **Preventive Medicine** (genomics, pandemic preparedness, climate-health interface)

– **Transplant Medicine** (immunotolerance, organ regeneration, xenotransplantation)

– **Palliative Care** (digital symptom tracking, AI for comfort care)

– **Clinical Informatics** (AI/ML, decision support, big data in healthcare)

– **Oncology** (Medical, Hematology-Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Surgical Oncology)

– **Cardiology** (especially Interventional & Electrophysiology)

### **What You’ll Do**

– Guide research teams to close knowledge gaps and improve AI model reasoning in your domain.

– Develop annotation standards, evaluation frameworks, and high-rigor rubrics for clinical reasoning.

– Design challenging, domain-relevant tasks and write gold-standard solutions.

– Evaluate AI-generated outputs, providing structured feedback to ensure medical accuracy.

– Collaborate with peers across disciplines to maintain consistency and depth in training data.

### **Qualifications**

– **Location:** Based in the US

– **Education:** MD or DO from a reputable institution

– **Experience:** 5+ years of post-training clinical practice in one of the listed frontier specialties (top-tier institution preferred)

– **Sub-speciality Research:** Currently a leader in your sub-area, or actively furthering research in your domain to where little in the world can speak to your progress

### **What We Offer**

– **Pay range:** $150–$500/hr (based on specialty and experience)

– **Role length:** Long-term (6–12 months)

– **Structure:** W2 employment with flexible, remote work

– **Commitment:** ~10–40 hrs/week; 2–5 calibration calls with research teams weekly

– Opportunity to directly shape the next generation of advanced AI systems at the frontier of medicine and technology
