2026 Summer/Fall Intern - Regev Lab - Decoding Genetic Circuitry

About the role#

The Regev Lab is seeking a motivated intern to join a project focused on decoding the genetic circuitry of human immune cells. This role involves analyzing high-dimensional perturbation datasets to understand how genetic interventions influence cell states and drive phenotypic shifts. You will work to bridge the gap between transcriptomic profiles and functional biological outcomes to map the rules governing immune cell behavior.

What you'll do#

• Analyze high-dimensional perturbation datasets, including large-scale genetic screens, to map gene function and regulatory networks.
• Utilize rigorous quantitative and statistical frameworks to identify robust gene expression programs.
• Relate transcriptomic patterns to broader biological contexts.
• Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to drive data-informed validation of computational findings and prioritize experimental targets.

What you'll need#

• Current enrollment in a Master's or PhD program.
• Academic background in Computer Science, Biology, Biomedical Engineering, or Biomedical Sciences.
• Ability to analyze high-dimensional perturbation data and apply rigorous quantitative approaches.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills for interdisciplinary collaboration.

Location & details#

• Location: South San Francisco, California (On-site).
• Term: Summer/Fall 2026.
• Status: Full-time, paid internship.
• Note: Sponsorship is not provided for this position.
