What is a bioinformatics internship?

A Bioinformatics Internship is a temporary position that provides students or recent graduates with hands-on experience in analyzing biological data using computational tools. Interns may work on projects involving DNA sequencing, protein structure analysis, or developing algorithms for data processing. These positions are commonly found in research institutions, biotechnology companies, and pharmaceutical firms. The internship helps build practical skills in programming, data analysis, and biological interpretation, preparing candidates for careers in bioinformatics.

What types of projects or tasks do bioinformatics interns typically work on?

Bioinformatics interns often work on projects such as analyzing genomic or proteomic data, developing data processing pipelines, or assisting with software tool development for biological research. They may help interpret experimental results, perform quality control on large datasets, or support ongoing research by visualizing data using specialized tools. Interns regularly collaborate with biologists, software engineers, and data scientists, gaining exposure to interdisciplinary teamwork. This hands-on experience allows interns to develop practical skills and deepen their understanding of real-world research challenges in the life sciences.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in a bioinformatics internship?

To thrive in a Bioinformatics Internship, you should have a strong background in biology, computer science, and statistics, often supported by coursework or a degree in bioinformatics or a related field. Familiarity with programming languages such as Python or R, experience with genomic databases, and the ability to work with bioinformatics software tools are highly valued. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication skills are essential soft skills for this role. These qualities enable interns to analyze complex biological data, collaborate successfully with interdisciplinary teams, and contribute meaningfully to scientific research projects.

Job description

Who are we, and what do we do. Grow what's next. Grow your future.

Are you excited to contribute to innovative research that advances food security and sustainability. Corteva Agriscience is seeking students for full-time internships within our Research and Development organization in Indianapolis, Indiana. Interns will work closely with experienced scientists and technical experts in an industrial R&D setting, with opportunities to build skills, contribute to meaningful projects, and network across the company.

What You'll Do: We are looking for interns who can work effectively as part of a multidisciplinary team, contributing to the discovery and optimization of new chemical leads for insect, weed, and disease control. Working alongside experienced scientists, the intern will apply computational modeling, molecular design, molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, and data analysis techniques to support discovery projects. Responsibilities may include: Molecular docking, virtual screening, structure-based design, molecular dynamics simulations, molecular property prediction, cheminformatics analyses, and the application of machine learning, deep learning, and other computational methods to identify and prioritize novel compounds.

Work in a safe manner and embody Corteva's safety culture. Demonstrate independent and creative thinking by making novel observations, interpreting data, and drawing sound scientific conclusions. Present project reviews throughout the summer and a final poster before colleagues and peers.

What Skills You Need: Currently pursuing a Masters or Doctorate degree in computational chemistry, informatics, chemistry, chemical engineering, computer science, bioinformatics, or a related scientific discipline and possess strong problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skill. Must be able to relocate to Indianapolis, IN for the duration of the internship. Must be able to work full-time (40 hours per week) for at least 10 weeks during the timeframe of May to August.

Coursework or research experience in molecular modeling, cheminformatics, molecular dynamics simulations, drug design, molecular mechanics, quantum mechanics, machine learning, scientific programming, or related computational methods would be beneficial. Are you a good match. Apply today.

We seek applicants from all backgrounds to ensure we get the best, most creative talent on our team. Corteva Agriscience is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to embracing our differences to enrich lives, advance innovation, and boost company performance.
