Intern - Frontier Research

The Frontier Research team within Prescient Design seeks exceptional graduate student interns with a demonstrated research background in machine learning or statistics. Interns need a passion for independent research and technical problem solving, plus a strong interest in Bayesian decision theory and adaptive experimental design. This position requires onsite work in South San Francisco, CA.

Interns participate in cutting-edge research in simulation-based inference inspired by drug discovery applications. They develop well-documented code to facilitate adoption of the method. Results are presented in the form of a publication for submission to internal and external scientific venues.

Join Genentech's Prescient Design team focused on AI for drug discovery. The intensive 12-week, full-time paid internship runs 40 hours per week starting in May or June. A location-based stipend helps alleviate associated costs.

Contribute to research communities through publications at venues like NeurIPS, ICML, and ICLR. Apply skills in sequential decision making under uncertainty and explore-exploit tradeoffs. The role aligns with Genentech's culture of Integrity, Courage, and Passion.
