Writing clear guidelines and criteria that define what a high-quality dermatological assessment of an image looks like.

  • Providing clinical insight to improve model understanding and classification of dermatological presentations.
  • Ensuring accuracy, consistency, and adherence to medical and project standards..

Requirements

  • Medical degree (M.D.) with an active, unrestricted U.S. medical license.
