About the job Remote | Biology Research Data Review Scientist - $40-$60/hour We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for biology research professionals experienced in bioactivity data review, protein target validation, primary literature analysis, assay interpretation, UniProt workflows, and evidence-based scientific annotation.This role supports current and upcoming remote consulting opportunities focused on bioactivity database review, protein target assignment verification, scientific literature analysis, structured error classification, and high-quality project execution.
Selected professionals will apply their biology, pharmacology, biochemistry, or chemical biology expertise to verify whether protein target assignments accurately reflect the underlying scientific sources and provide concise, evidence-grounded review notes.Key Responsibilities Professionals in this role may contribute to: Protein Target Assignment Review
- Review protein target assignments in large-scale bioactivity database workflows
- Compare assigned UniProt IDs against primary scientific sources, including papers, patents, and related research materials
- Determine whether target assignments accurately reflect the proteins being studied
- Propose corrected UniProt accessions when assignments require revision
Scientific Literature & Bioactivity Data Evaluation - Read and interpret primary literature involving binding assays, functional assays, biochemical profiling, target validation, or drug discovery workflows
- Evaluate target, assay, and compound-related context using scientific judgment and domain knowledge
- Review bioactivity records involving databases such as ChEMBL, BindingDB, PubChem, or adjacent data sources
- Identify inconsistencies, unclear mappings, or evidence gaps in protein target assignments
Structured Annotation & Evidence-Based Feedback - Flag and classify target assignment errors using a structured taxonomy
- Write concise, evidence-grounded notes explaining review decisions and scientific reasoning
- Apply consistent annotation standards across database records and supporting source materials
- Maintain accuracy, clarity, and professional judgment across submitted review work
Ideal ProfileStrong candidates may have: - BA/BS with 5+ years, MS with 2+ years, or PhD-level experience in a relevant biology, pharmacology, biochemistry, molecular biology, chemical biology, or drug discovery research field
- Experience in biotech, pharma, CRO, academic research, or applied life-science research environments
- Hands-on experience with binding assays or functional assays such as SPR, TR-FRET, radioligand binding, kinase assays, GPCR functional assays, IC50, Ki, or KD analysis
- Current or recent bench-active experience in a research scientist, associate scientist, or related scientific role
- Working fluency with UniProt or adjacent workflows such as SAR support, HTS, target validation, biochemical profiling, or IND-enabling studies
- Strong ability to read scientific literature and make careful, evidence-based judgments
- Ability to work independently in a remote, project-based environment
Educational Background - A BA/BS, MS, or PhD in biology, pharmacology, biochemistry, molecular biology, chemical biology, or a closely related life-science field is relevant
- Practical experience in biotech, pharma, CRO, drug discovery, assay development, target validation, or biochemical profiling is highly valuable
- Equivalent applied research experience involving protein targets, bioactivity data, assay interpretation, or scientific annotation may also be considered
Nice to Have - Direct experience with ChEMBL, BindingDB, PubChem, UniProt, or related scientific databases
- Experience with selectivity profiling, counterscreening, biochemical assays, or functional assays
- Familiarity with agonist/antagonist and activator/inhibitor distinctions
- Experience supporting SAR workflows, HTS campaigns, target validation, biochemical profiling, or IND-enabling studies
- Ability to commit approximately 10-20 hours per week depending on project availability and scope
Why This Opportunity - Apply biology research expertise to structured remote scientific review work
- Contribute to high-quality bioactivity data review, protein target validation, and scientific annotation workflows
- Work on flexible assignments aligned with your research background and assay interpretation experience
- Use your scientific judgment to improve accuracy across complex life-science data workflows
- Remote structure with competitive hourly compensation
Contract Details - Independent contractor role
- Fully remote with flexible scheduling
- Eligible professionals should be based in the United States depending on project needs
- Expected part-time commitment of approximately 10-20 hours per week depending on project availability
- Expected minimum engagement of approximately 1-2 months, with potential extension depending on scope and performance
- Competitive rates between $40-$60 per hour depending on expertise and project scope
- Weekly payments via Stripe or Wise
- Projects may be extended, shortened, or adjusted depending on scope and performance
- Work will not involve access to confidential or proprietary information from any employer, client, or institution
