  6. Provide written and verbal expertise on microbiological phenomena and their relevance to real-world and computational contexts.
  7. Utilize rubrics and established evaluation criteria to assess data quality and support AI training workflows.

  2. Experience with AI, machine learning, or annotation projects related to biology or microbiology.
  3. Advanced degree (Master’s or PhD) in a relevant field.
