The Allen Institute’s Summer Internship Program is an intensive summer experience designed to provide mentorship and research experience for associate, bachelor’s, and master’s degree students who are interested in furthering life sciences research or science-support and administrative careers.
Interns will learn and gain experience working for an organization dedicated to Big, Team, and Open science. This can include participating in research that can lead to publications and presentations as well as contributing to an overall scientific mission through administrative or technology roles. Allen Institute offers a unique community in which to see, support, and engage with science in action.

We occasionally offer internship roles outside of the Summer Internship Program. Timeline, eligibility, and specifics for each of these internship roles will be included in the Job Description.
The Allen Institute Postbaccalaureate Program is designed to provide a quality research experience to those who have completed an undergraduate degree and demonstrated a commitment to STEM, allowing them to pursue advanced STEM education or start a career in science or a related field.
Each Postbaccalaureate Research Assistant (postbac) will own a project that seeks to address a specific research question or scientific problem, and they will be paired with a primary mentor who will assist the postbac in their career development and help bring them into the Allen Institute community. New postbacs will start their roles in June or July and wrap up at the end of May, though some roles may have the option to extend to two years.
While most projects do not require prior research experience, please review the specific role’s Required Education and Experience before applying.
