Bioinformatics R&D Intern: Dive Into the World of Molecular Magic with Hologic’s Core Service Team!

Ready to geek out over data, code, and actual molecules? Join our Core Service Bioinformatics R&D crew for a 10-12 week internship where science meets innovation. Our team is all about improving molecular assays, and you’ll get hands-on experience with everything from computational analysis to wet lab experiments. You'll work side-by-side with mentors who love sharing knowledge, and your contributions will help real-world healthcare projects come to life.

What you’ll be up to during your 10-12 week adventure:

+ Write and maintain analysis scripts (Python, R, or your favorite language).

+ Manage cool computational workflows on Linux systems for data analysis and simulations.

+ Use bioinformatics and statistical tricks to evaluate sequence modifications.

+ Try your hand at wet lab experiments to test and validate oligonucleotides (yes, you’ll get to wear a lab coat).

+ Summarize, visualize, and share your findings with the team (bonus points for creative charts).

Who we’re hoping to meet:

+ You can work full-time during the summer (May/June - August/September).

+ You’re currently working on your Bachelor’s or Master’s degree, with at least one semester left after the internship.

+ Your major is in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Data Science, Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, or something similar.

+ You’re heading into your junior or senior year.

+ You know how to get your point across, whether you’re writing or speaking.

+ You have some experience with coding (Python, R, etc.) and Linux systems.

+ You’re curious about both computational and wet lab work—double the fun!

+ You love working with others and aren’t afraid to ask questions.

+ You’re organized and ready to tackle complex problems (with a little help from your new friends).

Location, pay & other important details:

+ You can work onsite at our Marlborough, MA campus. **Heads up:** intern housing, relocation, and housing stipends aren’t provided, so you’ll need to have your living situation and transportation sorted out.

+ Pay range: $22 - $35 per hour, based on your class standing and operational function.

+ The chance to work with a team that’s genuinely invested in your growth.

+ Networking, mentorship, and skill-building opportunities—all designed to help you thrive.
