Job Description:

The Summer Graduate Intern, Translational Systems Toxicology, will join the multidisciplinary Translational Safety team within Preclinical Sciences and Translational Safety (PSTS) and gain hands-on experience supporting proteomics-based translational research.

The intern will contribute to the development, optimization, and evaluation of sample preparation workflows for mass spectrometry-based proteomics, with a focus on improving robustness, throughput, scalability, and automation readiness across a variety of biological sample types, including blood- and tissue-derived samples.

Key Responsibilities


* Supporting the development, optimization, and evaluation of proteomics sample preparation workflows for biological samples, including blood- and tissue-derived matrices


* Assessing and comparing sample preparation approaches to improve analytical performance, reproducibility, throughput, and suitability for downstream mass spectrometry analysis


* Exploring strategies to enable robust proteomic analysis from challenging or limited-volume samples, when appropriate


* Developing and adapting sample preparation workflows for laboratory automation platforms such as the Agilent AssayMAP Bravo


* Collaborating with cross-functional scientists to design experiments, analyze results, and interpret findings


* Performing protein extraction, digestion, peptide cleanup, and other proteomics sample preparation procedures using established laboratory practices


* Analyzing experimental data and summarizing results using appropriate software and computational tools


* Maintain clear experimental records, troubleshoot technical challenges, and communicate progress, results, and recommendations to cross-functional collaborators


* Summarize the project in a final presentation/poster and provide a concise, reproducible workflow and recommendations for future development
