Intern, Translational Neuroscience at Johnson & Johnson

Job Description: Our expertise in Innovative Medicine is informed and inspired by patients, whose insights fuel our science-based advancements. Visionaries like you work on teams that save lives by developing the medicines of tomorrow. Join us in developing treatments, finding cures, and pioneering the path from lab to life while championing patients every step of the way. This 10-12 week internship is part of Johnson & Johnson’s Early in Career Program, designed to provide students with hands‑on experience in cutting‑edge research and development. The intern will contribute to translational neuroscience initiatives focused on precision medicine approaches for autoantibody‑driven diseases.

Responsibilities: Perform exploratory data analysis on large‑scale proteomic datasets from public repositories (e.g., UK Biobank, GNPC) and internal J&J studies. Conduct clustering of disease indications and patient subgroups based on autoantibody status. Perform pathway enrichment analysis to identify biological processes linked to autoantibody generation. Investigate whether proteomic signatures can predict autoantibody presence across different disease indications. Summarize findings and contribute to early‑stage predictive modeling approaches for autoantibody detection using proteomic or multi‑omic data.

Qualifications: Currently enrolled in a graduate or advanced undergraduate program in Computer Science, Bioinformatics, Data Science, or a related field. Strong programming skills (e.g., Python, R) and experience with machine learning, statistical modeling, and data visualization. Familiarity with proteomics analysis and large‑scale biological datasets. Knowledge of neuroscience or immunology is a plus but not required. Ability to work independently and communicate findings effectively.
