About Generate:Biomedicines
Generate:Biomedicines is a new kind of therapeutics company – existing at the intersection of machine learning, biological engineering, and medicine – pioneering Generative Biology™ to create breakthrough medicines where novel therapeutics are computationally generated, instead of being discovered. The Company has built a machine learning-powered biomedicines platform with the potential to generate new drugs across a wide range of biologic modalities. This platform represents a potentially fundamental shift in what is possible in the field of biotherapeutic development.
We pursue this audacious vision because we believe in the unique and revolutionary power of generative biology to radically transform the lives of billions, with an outsized opportunity for patients in need. We are seeking collaborative, relentless problem solvers that share our passion for impact to join us!
Generate:Biomedicines was founded in 2018 by Flagship Pioneering and has received over $700 million in funding, providing the resources to rapidly scale the organization. The Company has offices in Somerville and Andover, Massachusetts with 300+ employees.
The Role:
The Machine Learning team at Generate:Biomedicines develops new technologies for protein generative modeling and therapeutic discovery, and we are looking for creative and motivated graduate student interns to join us for a summer of research. During this time, interns will work with a mentor to develop a project exploring new kinds of ML modeling approaches for proteins, which can address foundational problems in biochemistry, molecular biology, and immunology while leveraging advances at the forefront of ML for language, vision, geometry, and uncertainty. Interns will have broad exposure to the technologies across the platform through cross functional interactions with the wet lab as well as social and educational programming to get to know scientists working in industry and to learn more about how research can translate into making medicines for patients.
Internship projects for the summer of 2025 are available within the machine learning, data science, computational structure determination, and quantitative biology groups at Generate:Biomedicines.
