Since 1980, we’ve helped pioneer the world of biotech in our fight against the world’s toughest diseases. With our focus on four therapeutic areas –Oncology, Inflammation, General Medicine, and Rare Disease– we reach millions of patients each year. Amgen is advancing a broad and deep pipeline of medicines to treat cancer, heart disease, inflammatory conditions, rare diseases, and obesity and obesity-related conditions.
What you'd do
- Identify, curate, and compare relevant external and internal data, including chemical structures, assay results, and exposure information where available
- Develop and evaluate approaches suited to each question. These may include structural alerts, analogue-based read-across, machine learning, and models that integrate experimental results with other safety evidence
- Evaluate performance on compounds relevant to the intended use, and document context of use, uncertainty, applicability, and important limitations
- Work with computational scientists, medicinal chemists, and toxicologists to explore how model outputs can guide compound prioritization and follow-up experiments
- Present results and deliver reproducible analyses, documented model prototypes, and recommendations for further development
- Provide mechanisms for retraining as additional data is generated over timeProgram Eligibility Requirements
- Must be available to work a part-time schedule.
- Expected continued enrollment in an accredited college or university following the internship program / co-op
- Student must be located in the United States for the duration of the internship program
