Biotech Internships

A growing list of Biotech companies have expressed interest in hosting Math Biology students for summer internships. Typically, a student may choose to spend a summer after the first or second year of graduate study in an internship. The companies that have expressed this interest to date include:

Idaho Technologies (Contact: David Eyre)

Arcaris (Contact: Alexander Kamb )

Myriad Genetics (Contact: Daniel Wettstein )

Merck Research Laboratories (Contact: Jeffrey Sachs )
