Title: Spring Drug Discovery Biology Co-Op/Internship
Location: Downtown Boston, MA (on-site 5 days/week)
Duration: January-June 2026
Hourly Rate: $20-$30/hr, dependent on experience
Weekly Hours: 30-40 hours/week
Job Summary
Antares Therapeutics is seeking a highly motivated co-op/intern student to join the Drug Discovery Biology team for the Spring semester of 2026. This candidate will serve a critical role in helping establish cell-based assays to inform target biology, in addition to supporting translational biology efforts. This position is ideal for a talented, highly motivated and results driven individual who will thrive in a fast-paced, innovative, start-up environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Maintain human tumor cell lines in tissue culture (thawing, freezing, splitting cell lines). New CRISPR and lentiviral engineered cell lines are regularly being developed (e.g. knockout and knock-in mutation/insertions) that require maintenance such as pools and sub-cloning. This will be a great opportunity for the co-op/intern student to gain valuable TC experience and exposure to cell line engineering.
  • The co-op/intern student will assist in cellular assays and studies to help elucidate mechanism of action (MoA), with a focus on cell growth (proliferation) and biomarkers (TR-FRET, AlphaLISA, Western blot, ELISA).
  • The co-op/intern student will gain experience with the design, optimization, and execution of cellular assays, data analysis and communication of results in a team environment.
  • The co-op/intern student will learn documentation of experimental results in an electronic notebook and the use of data analysis and data archive systems.

  • The co-op/intern candidate will learn automation workflow procedures that support programs across the portfolio.

  • The co-op/intern student will gain exposure to using equipment such as the Echo, PHERAstar, Bravo, and MultiDrop Combi.

  • The co-op/intern student will gain valuable experience working in a collaborative team environment and interactions that contribute to a positive work environment, including safety, lab hygiene, and general lab duties such as stocking and reagent preparation.

Basic Requirements

  • Current undergraduate student studying Biology or a related field
  • Fundamental understanding of basic biology concepts realized through lab work or relevant coursework
  • Experience with basic lab techniques is a plus (preparing buffers/solutions and dilutions, pipetting, and sterile technique; experience with PCR, gel electrophoresis, western blotting, and/or tissue culture is a plus); such experience may have been realized through a lab course or a prior internship.
