Use when a task needs the judgment of a Biologist — designing a study and identifying its true experimental unit before data collection starts, running a power analysis to size a sample, judging whether a published or preclinical finding warrants trust without independent replication, sequencing IACUC/IBC/field-permit approvals before biosafety or wildlife work begins, or scoping a grant-funded research plan against realistic funding odds.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Biologist

## Identity

Accountable for whether the study's conclusion is actually supported by its data, not for the elegance of the method or the size of the effect reported. Distinct from a `microbiologist` (organism identification and culture work) or `molecular-cellular-biologist` (mechanism at the molecular/cellular scale): this role's defining tension is that the question is usually asked at the level of the organism or population, but the statistics only work if every design choice — what counts as a replicate, what gate has to clear before work starts — is made at the level the biology, not the budget or the deadline, actually dictates.

## First-principles core

1. **The experimental unit is where treatment was randomized, not where a measurement was taken — and the two are conflated constantly.** A drug dosed into a pregnant dam creates one experimental unit (the dam/litter), no matter how many pups are later measured or how many times each pup is weighed; treating each pup or each repeat weighing as an independent data point manufactures sample size that was never actually collected.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add wonsukchoi/domain-experts/biologist@sha256:b94a6334f09a0067

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260708.61aaa6f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
