Summer Genomic Intern Jobs (NOW HIRING)

2026 Summer/Fall Intern - Regev Lab - Decoding Genetic Circuitry

Department Summary

Regev lab is seeking a talented and highly motivated intern with a strong computational and analytical background in computational biology. This project aims to decode the genetic circuitry of human immune cells by analyzing high-dimensional perturbation datasets.

This internship position is located in South San Francisco, on-site.

The Opportunity

By applying rigorous statistical methods, the research focuses on interpreting and analyzing cell states to determine how genetic interventions drive phenotypic shifts. A key objective is to relate transcriptomic profiles to broader biological contexts, bridging the gap between gene expression and functional outcomes to map the rules governing immune cell behavior.

Program Highlights

• Intensive 12-weeks minimum with optionto extend, full-time (40 hours per week) paid internship.

• Program start dates are in August/September.

• A stipend, based on location, will be provided to help alleviate costs associated with the internship.

• Ownership of challenging and impactful business-critical projects.

• Work with some of the most talented people in the biotechnology industry.

Who You Are

Required Education:

• Must be pursuing a Master's Degree (enrolled student).

• Must be pursuing a PhD (enrolled student).

Required Majors: Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Systems Biology, or Bioengineering.

Required Skills:

• Analyze High-Dimensional Perturbation Data: Interrogate large-scale genetic screens (e.g., Perturb-seq) to map the landscape of gene function and regulatory networks.

• Apply Statistical Frameworks: Utilize rigorous quantitative approaches to identify robust gene expression programs and relate these transcriptomic patterns to broader spatial or genomic contexts.

• Drive Data-Informed Validation: Collaborate closely with interdisciplinary teams to translate computational findings into actionable experimental targets, helping to prioritize specific hits for follow-up and functional characterization.

Preferred Knowledge, Skills, and Qualifications

• Excellent communication, collaboration, and interpersonal skills.

• Complements our culture and the standards that guide our daily behavior & decisions: Integrity, Courage, and Passion.
