Philadelphia Pennsylvania, United States Serna Bio Full time


Research Associate Internship

Serna Bio is building the world’s first map of the druggable transcriptome, systematically opening up the universe of RNA biology to small molecule drug discovery. Using our Discovery Platform, we are tackling the classically intractable targets ranging from coding and non-coding RNA.

We are looking for a Summer Research Intern to join our team and work directly with our CEO

The Impact You’ll Make

You’ll work alongside the CEO and our drug discovery team to support research on therapeutic areas and business strategy. Your work will involve literature reviews on specific therapeutic areas, specific targets or competitive landscaping for a specific indication.

This work will help inform our future program strategy. This is an opportunity to work with ambitious Biotech startup and make a real impact.

The role does require a significant time commitment and we are looking for people with a talent for research and a clear communication style.

The Team You’ll Join

Serna Bio was built to challenge assumptions around Biology, Disease Definition, Drug discovery, the definition of blockbuster drugs, and the potential of the structurome.  We are a globally distributed and interdisciplinary team working on complex multi-domain scientific challenges. 

Our work is informed by data and inspired by a challenge. We’re impact players who hold one another to the highest standards because we believe in the extraordinary human potential of the work we do.

Requirements

Technical Requirements

PhD candidates, or recent Post-Docs with strong academic performance and with focus in autoimmune disorders or oncology. Passion for scientific reading and writing and looking to work in AI & Drug Discovery

Intellectually curious with the ability to challenge conventional thinking

Excellent writing and communication skills

Strong self-management (detail orientation, effective time management, ability to prioritise);

Available for at least 5 hours a week

The Values You’ll Share

We are unapologetically unrealistic: We are unapologetic that our expectations for delivery are extraordinarily high. There is urgency to our existence: our ambition grounded in relentless execution of well designed experiments. 

We are data-driven: Data trumps opinions.  

We are humble: We understand the limitations of our knowledge and seek to learn from others to minimize them.

We are curious: Learning from the diverse perspectives of our fellow teammates, and from failure, is an essential part of how we make progress. At Serna Bio, we celebrate failure, mistakes, and the ability to learn from them.

We are one company: We operate with a ‘company first, team second’ mentality. Our success comes from working as one interdisciplinary organization.  

What We Offer

The opportunity to accelerate your career. You will work on key commercial projects, at commercial pace, and will have considerable exposure to the ways an early-stage biotech business operates..

The opportunity to make a difference. Your work will have a direct impact on the experiments we run, and will influence our programs destined for the clinic to affect patient outcomes.

A place to explore the range of your interests. We pride ourselves in an environment that cultivates curiosity, creativity and autonomy. At Serna the “why” of things is always the most important question.

An environment designed to broaden your perspectives. We care deeply about inclusive working practices and diverse teams. Diversity is integral to our success, and an inclusive environment allows the team to do their best work.
