Overview Models blur the line between what's established, what's contested, and what's simply made up in the life sciences, and they cite papers that don't exist. As a Biologist you'll hold AI biological reasoning to the standard of the literature and write answers that get the science right.
What you’ll actually do Write prompts that probe biological reasoning: molecular mechanisms, experimental design, and data interpretation. Review AI output for fabricated citations, overstated claims, and misread experiments, and rate the reasoning. Write the correct answer when the model falls short, grounded in the actual literature.
Roles this fits Common backgrounds: Biologist, Molecular Biologist.
What we look for Graduate-level biology background or equivalent research experience. Comfort reading primary literature critically. Clear written English: your explanations are the training signal. No degree required. We care about what you can do, not where you learned it.
Compensation Up to $125+/hr depending on task difficulty and specialization. Many contributors add $100k–$200k a year; some make it their full-time income.

What does the Biologist role at DataAnnotation pay?
DataAnnotation indicates Up to $125/hr for this role, but hedges the figure rather than committing to it. Treat it as an indication: HumanSourcer flags hedged pay instead of presenting it as a firm rate, and the listing's own wording is quoted in the Pay section above.

Is DataAnnotation a legitimate AI-training platform?
Reported worker-facing operating brand - and that relationship is rated "High - reported, not disclosed on portal" here because it can be checked against nymag.com rather than taken on DataAnnotation's word. Confidence describes how well the ownership is evidenced. It is not a rating of how the platform treats the people who work for it, which no public source covers reliably.
