Medicine Specialist - Misinformation at Mercor
posted 5 months agoMedicine Specialist – Misinformation Discovery | $170/hr | Worldwide Remote
We are seeking specialist physicians to participate in a brief, paid survey focused on identifying consumer health misconceptions encountered in patient interactions and across social media platforms.
About the Project
This is a short survey estimated to take 8–10 minutes to complete, with a $25 honorarium awarded upon completion. Your insights will help identify and address widespread health misinformation that requires specialist-level knowledge to evaluate accurately.
What You'll Do
- Identify consumer health misconceptions you've encountered — either through direct patient interactions or on platforms such as X (Twitter), Reddit, TikTok, or similar.
- Focus on claims where accurate assessment depends on specialty-specific knowledge, particularly those involving differential diagnosis.
- Provide a source link (post, video, or thread) for each misconception submitted to help verify prevalence and understand how the claim is framed.
Who We're Looking For
- Board-certified or specialist physicians with active clinical experience
- Professionals with familiarity with consumer health content online
- Individuals who can clearly articulate why a misconception is medically inaccurate
This is a quick, flexible opportunity to contribute meaningfully to improving public health information quality.
