Overview
Handshake is seeking individuals with a PhD in medicine, biomedical sciences, or related fields to support AI research through flexible, hourly contract work. This is not a clinical or full-time role. You'll apply your scientific and medical knowledge to evaluate AI-generated content and provide feedback that helps AI systems better understand biomedical concepts, disease mechanisms, research interpretation, and evidence-based reasoning. This is an ongoing, project-based opportunity that can be done alongside research, postdoctoral training, academic roles, or other professional commitments.
Details
F-1 students who are eligible for CPT or OPT may be eligible for projects on Handshake AI. Work with your Designated School Official to determine your eligibility. If your school requires a CPT course, Handshake AI may not meet your school’s requirements. STEM OPT is not supported. See our Help Center article for more information on what types of work authorizations are supported on Handshake AI.

Details
- This project involves using your experience in medicine to design rigorous, clinically relevant questions and review AI-generated responses for accuracy, logical consistency, and medical soundness across topics such as diagnosis, treatment planning, pathophysiology, and patient management.
- No prior AI evaluation or technical experience is required. Fully remote with a flexible, asynchronous schedule and no minimum hour requirement; most contributors work approximately 5–20 hours per week when participating in an active project.
- Placement depends on current project needs, with opportunities to be considered for future projects as they become available.
- PhD in medicine, biomedical sciences, or a closely related field (or currently pursuing one, including postdoctoral researchers).
- Strong background in scientific research, critical analysis, and evidence-based reasoning, with familiarity in interpreting literature, experimental design, and biomedical data.
