What are internship opportunities in epigenetics?

Internship opportunities in epigenetics provide students or recent graduates hands-on experience in studying how gene expression is regulated without changes to the underlying DNA sequence. These internships typically involve working in research laboratories, where interns assist with experiments, data analysis, and literature reviews related to epigenetic mechanisms. Participants gain practical skills in molecular biology techniques, data interpretation, and scientific communication, making these roles valuable for those interested in careers in genetics, biomedical research, or biotechnology.

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

To thrive as an Epigenetics Intern, you generally need a background in molecular biology, genetics, or a related field, with coursework or laboratory experience in epigenetics. Familiarity with laboratory techniques such as PCR, DNA/RNA extraction, sequencing technologies, and bioinformatics tools is often required. Attention to detail, a willingness to learn, and strong analytical and communication skills help interns excel in research environments. These skills and qualities are crucial for contributing to scientific discovery, ensuring accurate data collection, and collaborating effectively within research teams.

What types of projects and hands-on experiences can I expect during an epigenetics internship?

As an Epigenetics intern, you will typically participate in a variety of laboratory-based projects such as DNA/RNA extraction, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), and next-generation sequencing. You may assist with data analysis using bioinformatics tools and work closely with experienced scientists to interpret experimental results. Collaboration is common, as you’ll often join team meetings and contribute to ongoing research discussions. This role provides a valuable opportunity to develop both technical laboratory skills and a deeper understanding of epigenetic mechanisms, laying a strong foundation for future career advancement in research or industry.

Job description

Sanford Burnham Prebys is much more than a research facility and hub for innovation; it’s a vibrant global community of talented scientists and researchers from over 30 countries. This worldwide representation enriches our perspectives and enhances our creative approach to solving complex scientific challenges.

We strive to be leaders not only in biomedical research but also in creating an environment where excellence thrives through collaboration across cultures and backgrounds. Our mission is to advance the biomedical sciences by cultivating the next generation of scientific leaders, providing meaningful opportunities for researchers of all backgrounds to learn, innovate, and make breakthrough discoveries that improve human health.

Together, we translate science into health.

The duties and responsibilities contained in the job description are intended to be examples of the accountabilities for which the person in the position will demonstrate competency through performance. The job description is not intended to be an all-inclusive list. Duties and responsibilities are subject to change and other duties may be assigned as necessary.

Internship Summary: 

The integration of current coursework into an internship bridges the gap between academic study and professional practice, forming a bidirectional learning cycle. This process allows interns to apply theoretical frameworks to real-world challenges while using professional experiences to refine and deepen their understanding of academic concepts.

The Tian lab investigates the molecular mechanisms of aging. Our current work in epigenetic reprogramming demonstrates that the progressive loss of epigenetic information is a key driver of aging. We aim to understand how the epigenetic landscape is established and maintained, and why the maintenance system fails, leading to aging and age-related diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration. For more information, see https://www.xiaotianlab.org
Internship to learn epigenetic mechanisms of aging in the Tian lab at Sanford Burnham Prebys. Research areas include immunology and neurobiology. Experimental approaches include cell culture, multi-omics, immunofluorescence, flow cytometry, tumor analysis, and genetic animal models.
Internship Eligibility:

Must be a current student at University of California, San Diego (USCD). You will have to enroll in BISP197 for Fall 2026.
