Internship Opportunities!

From Genetic Alliance:

Good Afternoon Everyone!


I¹m writing to let you all know about the exciting internship opportunities
that we have here at Genetic Alliance! All interns make meaningful
contributions to Genetic Alliance projects and programs while providing an
invaluable level of program and administrative support for the organization.

Our Public Health Genomics Internship may be of special interest to members
of the Genomics Forum:

Public Health Genomics Intern
Help us transform the emerging field of public health genomics. Genetic
Alliance has strong ties with the American Public Health Association¹s
Genomics Forum and is engaged in a number of projects that will inform the
future of public health for rare and common conditions. This position will
reach out to other fields in public health, conduct research, and craft
white papers on future directions for early disease detection and
intervention. Join us in translating decades of research into the systems
and services that will help keep individuals, families, and communities
healthy. Genetic Alliance gives preference to applicants who are currently
pursuing or who have obtained a public health degree or can demonstrate
previous experience in the public health field, but all are welcome to
apply.
