What does a genomics intern do?

A Genomics Intern assists researchers and scientists in studying genes, DNA, and their functions. Their tasks often include preparing samples, running laboratory experiments, analyzing genetic data, and helping with research documentation. Genomics interns may also work with bioinformatics tools to interpret genomic datasets. This role provides hands-on experience in a lab setting and exposure to real-world genetic research projects.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a genomics intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Genomics Intern, a solid understanding of molecular biology, genetics, and bioinformatics is typically required, often supported by coursework or a degree in life sciences. Familiarity with tools such as Python or R for data analysis, as well as experience with genome databases and sequencing technologies, is highly valuable. Attention to detail, analytical thinking, and effective communication skills help interns interpret complex data and collaborate within research teams. These competencies are crucial for accurately analyzing genomic information and contributing meaningful insights to scientific projects.

What types of projects can a genomics intern expect to work on, and how do they contribute to the larger research team?

As a Genomics Intern, you can expect to assist with projects such as DNA sequencing, data analysis, and genomic annotation. Interns often collaborate with bioinformaticians, laboratory technicians, and researchers to process samples, manage datasets, and interpret results. Your contributions help advance ongoing research by supporting data quality control, preparing reports, and sometimes participating in experimental design. This collaborative environment offers a great opportunity to learn advanced techniques and understand how multidisciplinary teams drive scientific discovery.

What is the difference between Genomics Intern vs Bioinformatics Intern?

AspectGenomics InternBioinformatics Intern
Required CredentialsUndergraduate or graduate in biology, genetics, or related fieldsUndergraduate or graduate in computer science, biology, or related fields
Work EnvironmentLaboratories, research facilities, biotech companiesComputational labs, research institutions, biotech companies
Industry UsageGenomics research, genetic testing, biotech R&DData analysis, software development, genomic data interpretation

While both roles involve working with genetic data, a Genomics Intern typically focuses on laboratory-based experiments and sample analysis, whereas a Bioinformatics Intern emphasizes computational data analysis and software tools. Both positions often require a background in biology or computer science and are common in biotech and research settings.

Job description

Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center is an independent, nonprofit organization providing adult cancer treatment and groundbreaking research focused on cancer and infectious diseases. Based in Seattle, Fred Hutch is the only National Cancer Institute-designated cancer center in Washington.

With a track record of global leadership in bone marrow transplantation, HIV/AIDS prevention, immunotherapy and COVID-19 vaccines, Fred Hutch has earned a reputation as one of the worldโ€™s leading cancer, infectious disease and biomedical research centers. Fred Hutch operates eight clinical care sites that provide medical oncology, infusion, radiation, proton therapy and related services, and network affiliations with hospitals in five states. Together, our fully integrated research and clinical care teams seek to discover new cures to the worldโ€™s deadliest diseases and make life beyond cancer a reality.

At Fred Hutch we value collaboration, compassion, determination, excellence, innovation, integrity and respect. Our mission is directly tied to the humanity, dignity and inherent value of each employee, patient, community member and supporter. Our commitment to learning across our differences and similarities make us stronger. We seek employees who bring different and innovative ways of seeing the world and solving problems.

The Srivatsan Lab (Basic Sciences Division, Fred Hutch) is a computational biology lab focused on developing computational tools and methods for analysis of high throughput single-cell genomics data. We work in extensive collaborative partnerships with bench scientists to tackle questions related to cellular differentiation, lineage decisions, regulatory mechanisms, somatic variation, and the organization of tissues.

We are seeking a temporary Research Intern (hourly) to perform investigative computational experiments. Further information on the labโ€™s research projects can be found at: https://www.srivatsan-lab.com

The Srivatsan Lab provides a supportive environment that strongly emphasizes individualized mentoring. We will collaborate with you to identify and develop a plan to achieve your professional development goals. 


This position will work under the Principal Investigator and a senior laboratory technician, and work with the laboratory personnel. The individual will use discretion and judgment in carrying out the following job duties and work aiding others in the laboratory:

  • Perform dry-lab experiments to support investigative work.
  • Maintain laboratory records and compile data on experiments.
  • Interpret and report on experimental results.
  • Attend lab meetings.
  • Present scientific findings at lab meeting.
  • General lab/cluster cleaning and organization.
  • Perform other duties as required.

Other Expectations

  • Work collaboratively within the Srivatsan Lab staff.
  • Show respect to all members of the lab and the broader Hutch community.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

  • A High school diploma or GED is required.
  • Must be currently enrolled as undergraduate in university or community college institution.
  • Applicants must have excellent computer skills, including the ability to use MS word, PowerPoint and Excel.
  • Ability to learn new tools and content quickly and independently.
  • Strong communication skills.
  • Applicants must be flexible and able to work independently without supervision.

The hourly pay range for this position is from $21.30 to $30.13 and pay offered will be based on experience and qualifications.

Although Fred Hutch is not sponsoring most H-1B visas at this time, candidates who already hold an H-1B sponsored by another organization and are currently in the U.S. may be eligible for this position.


Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center offers employees access to a retirement savings plan, an employee assistance program, paid sick leave (1 hour for every 30 hours worked), and prorated paid holidays (up to 11 days per year).
