Bioinformatics Intern

**Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for current or future visa sponsorship.

At RefinedScience, our mission is to advance care by bringing together the best science, data and minds – disease by disease, patient by patient, cell by cell to discover pathways to life beyond disease.   

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We are seeking a highly motivated Bioinformatics Intern to join our team. This internship is ideal for graduate students (Master’s or Ph.D.) passionate about applying computational methods to solve complex biological and healthcare challenges. You will have the opportunity to contribute to projects involving genomics and single cell multiomics data, leveraging advanced analytics and machine learning to drive meaningful scientific insights.

Our Bioinformatics team plays a crucial role in integrating computational biology, large-scale data analysis, and machine learning to drive discoveries in precision medicine, genomics, and drug development.

POTENTIAL ACTIVITES

• Analyze large-scale single cell multiomics datasets (CITE-seq) to generate insights into disease mechanisms.
• Work on machine learning and statistical approaches to support biomarker discovery and precision medicine initiatives.
• Develop and optimize bioinformatics workflows and pipelines for high-throughput data processing, quality control, and analysis.
• Develop novel visualizations to support interactive exploration of high dimensional single cell multiomics datasets.
• Collaborate with scientists, clinicians, and data scientists to design and execute data-driven research projects.
• Present findings through technical reports, visualizations, and presentations to cross-functional teams.

MUST HAVES

• Master’s or Ph.D. candidate in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Genomics, Data Science, or a related field.
• Experience using R or Python programming languages for computational biology research.
• Experience analyzing high throughput sequencing data and single cell RNA-seq data.
• Familiarity with processing and analyzing data within a cloud or HPC computing environment.
• Basic understanding of cancer biology, genomics, or related relevant biological fields.
• Demonstrated ability to conduct reproducible computational biology research, as evidenced by Github repositories and/or scientific publications.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to communicate complex insights effectively.

Duration:  8 – 10 Weeks (40 hours per week)

Location:  Remote or Hybrid. Candidate will be expected to travel to our headquarters (Aurora, CO) at least once during the internship.
