Research Scientist (Biological Models), Chem-Bio
This role involves conducting empirical research on the risk-relevant capabilities of specialised biological AI models, such as those for protein design and genomic analysis. The researcher will design experiments to assess in-silico performance, evaluate whether computational results translate to real-world biological outcomes, and investigate technical safeguards against misuse. Working at the intersection of machine learning, computational biology, and biosecurity, the role requires translating complex technical findings into actionable insights for government and policy stakeholders.
