AI Biologist - Aging & Longevity
Latch builds rigorous scientific benchmarks (benchmarks.bio http://benchmarks.bio) for AI agents across biology. We work with frontier labs and pharma to measure whether agents can handle real biological workflows: the messy, multi-layer reasoning that matters in the field.
We’re seeking an AI Biologist to join our Aging & Longevity team to help accelerate the discoveries AI can make in aging biology.
About the Role
You will use your scientific expertise to improve the ability of AI agents to reason like expert geroscientists. You will build tasks which evaluate aging-specific analysis capabilities and scientific taste. Your judgment will set the standard AI agents are evaluated against.
In this role, you will help accelerate research across the entire aging and longevity ecosystem.
You will work as part of a team of scientists and software engineers building benchmarks testing capabilities ranging from basic geroscience research to therapeutic discovery and development, including:
- Development, application, and interpretation of biomarkers of aging, such as proteomic and epigenetic clocks
- Design and analysis of experiments related to the Hallmarks of Aging https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(22)01377-0, such as quantification of cellular senescence, identification of stem cell exhaustion, and measurement of genomic instability
- Integration and analysis of diverse data modalities, such as transcriptomics, proteomics, DNA methylation, functional measurements, health records, and imaging data
- Use of high
