2023 OHSU Biomedical Informatics Summer Internship
The Department of Medical Informatics and Clinical Epidemiology (DMICE) will be hosting its College Undergraduate Biomedical Informatics and Data Science Internship Program again in the summer of 2023.
These internships provide full-time experiences in biomedical informatics and data science to college undergraduates to increase their knowledge and skills in these areas. The program’s goals are to provide exposure to biomedical informatics and data science with respect to best practices, impact of research on medicine and health, as well as possible graduate study and career paths. In addition to participation in a faculty-led research project, the experience will include:
- Knowledge of the motivations, activities, and challenges for biomedical informatics and data science
- Skills development in data science through the use of standard data sets and tools
- Training in responsible conduct of research
- Student-led and faculty-facilitated health data ethics and equity seminar
Summer interns will also attend weekly Informatics Research Conferences and present their research at the end of the internship at a mini-symposium.
The overarching goal of this summer program is to support educational activities that encourage individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those from groups underrepresented in the biomedical and behavioral sciences, to pursue further studies or careers in research. Due to the funding agency requirements, this program is open to U.S. Citizens and Permanent Residents only. Some of the positions will be funded by a new program from the US National Library of Medicine to enhance diversity in biomedical informatics and data science.
