well, if int helped with doctoring in SS2 i'd totally put her on that, but that's not how the mechanics work :D
i'm actually wondering there's a weird cross-interaction with a semi-bugged curie script and the new guards against assigning unavailable NPCs; it seems like when her script fires to ask me if i've found someone to help her become a synth (i haven't completed enough main vanilla quest yet for that), that's when she tends to end up unassigned if i don't respond fast enough. unfortunately, that interaction fires a lot.
i also couldn't successfully assign a freshly-made automatron to a plot until after i completed the initial conversation prompts with it (re: personality, are you coming with me, etc)
how aggressive are these new countermeasures?
