About us
Edison Scientific builds and deploys AI scientist agents to accelerate science and the development of new medicines. We are an ambitious team run by scientists and engineers from leading institutions across biology, physics, chemistry, and AI.
Role
We're seeking an experienced Toxicology Consultant for a flexible, part-time consulting engagement. You'll serve as the subject matter expert who defines the gold standard for AI-generated toxicology data and reports — ensuring our platform produces outputs that are scientifically accurate and regulatory-grade. This opportunity is designed to fit around existing commitments. This engagement will likely be 15-20 hours per week.
Responsibilities
- Share how nonclinical tox work is actually done day-to-day — study reports, CRO data packages, IND module content — not the SOP version, the real version
- Generate or review reference artifacts that define what correct looks like: IND-ready study reports, SEND datasets, repeat-dose tox summaries, safety pharmacology write-ups
- Identify realistic sources of variance, inconsistency, or data corruption in nonclinical study data so our tools can be tested against real-world messiness
- Design or review tasks for evaluating AI performance on tox-relevant activities
- Score and critique AI-generated toxicology outputs: is this scientifically correct, would it pass review, what would you change before it went into an IND?
Qualifications
- 10+ years in nonclinical toxicology, OR direct involvement in 10+ IND-enabling tox programs
- Deep experience synthesizing raw CRO study data into FDA-ready IND submissions
- Hands-on familiarity with repeat-dose tox, safety pharmacology, genotoxicity, TK, and related GLP studies
- Comfortable working with AI tools to evaluate and improve outputs
- PhD preferred but not required — real-world IND experience is prioritized
- Note: Our consulting roles do not offer benefits, including the ones shared below.
