Next Gen Scientists Foundation:
Next Gen Scientists Foundation offers an opportunity to fund internships for undergraduate and postgraduate students who wish to gain research experience in life sciences. Interns will conduct independent research under the mentorship of the Principal Investigator of their interest at select Indian institutes. This year, we will continue to accept applications for remote internships in Computational Biology in addition to the usual on-site internships. However, please note that remote interns will comprise a maximum of 20% of the final selected cohort. NGS interns can apply to get their final year thesis projects funded starting in 2024.
