Hosted internships
We offer professional internships for PhD students. Each internship is carefully defined, both with the institute and the individual, and usually involves projects with our journal teams. Each year, we host a 12-week internship with a focus on data gathering and analysis.
We are currently also looking for one or more interns to work on our community sites – the Node, preLights and FocalPlane. If you are interested in applying for either of these opportunities, please contact us at recruitment@biologists.com.
Hosted internships are funded through PhD programmes – created by funders to help further your professional development – and should be agreed with your PhD supervisor and institute.
