National Eye Institute Summer Intern Program<https://www.nei.nih.gov/grants-and-training/training-nei/internships-and-student-programs/nei-summer-intern-program> - at National Institute of Health campus in Bethesda, Maryland or at The Twinbrook facility at Fishers Lane in Rockville, Maryland (8-12 weeks, monthly stipend).

The NEI Summer Intern Program is part of the NIH Summer Internship Program (SIP), which gives college, graduate, and professional school (medical, optometry, veterinary) students a chance to spend the summer working with some of the world's leading scientists in an environment devoted to biomedical research.

Summer interns participate in cutting-edge research projects that investigate new ways to prevent, treat, or even reverse vision loss - including topics such as:

  *   Age-related macular degeneration and other eye diseases
  *   Ophthalmic genetics
  *   Retinal cell biology
  *   Visual neurobiology
  *   Immunology of the eye

Summer interns have the chance to go to seminars and workshops hosted by NEI and the NIH Office of Intramural Training and Education (OITE). Interns may also present at the NIH Summer Intern Poster Day on August 2025 with their mentor's permission.
NEI summer internships take place in Maryland and last anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks.

The application opens November 18, 2024.
