Biomaterials Summer Intern
As a Summer Intern reporting to the Scientist II, you will gain exposure to real-world biotech R&D work through biomaterials-focused projects. You will design and run experiments to characterize biomaterial systems, analyze data to generate insights, and collaborate with a cross-functional team to advance our technology while gaining experience with Cellanome’s platform.
Position overview:
- You will apply principles from materials science and cell biology to develop and evaluate biomaterial systems through iterative experimentation and data analysis. This role is ideal for someone who is intellectually curious, creative, and motivated to turn ideas into well-executed experiments and data-drive insights in a collaborative environment.
What makes you a good fit:
- Currently enrolled PhD student in bioengineering, chemical engineering, materials engineering, mechanical engineering, or a related field.
- Able to commit to a 10–12-week program during Summer 2026.
- Experience working with biomaterials including polymers and hydrogels.
- Experience with materials characterization techniques (e.g., microscopy, rheometry).
- Experience evaluating cell-material interactions.
- Strong data analysis and organizational skills.
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively.
In California, the estimated pay range for this position is $40-$45/hour. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
