Intern, Biostatistics

This application is for a 12-week internship role from June - August 2025. Resume review begins in January 2025. The Biostatistics Department in the Analytics and Data Sciences organization provides statistical support across Research and Development. The clinical statisticians in the biostatistics group collaborate with stakeholders from different disciplines to develop agile and robust clinical development plans and decision frameworks for portfolio of products encompassing early and late-stage development. They also provide statistical expertise and manage the activities for clinical programs to ensure valid and efficient study designs.  Position Description For the summer intern projects, you will require to read and synthesize key methodology papers, efficiently develop simulation code in R or other statistical package and explore results in a systematic way. Any new code should be documented and packaged in a user-friendly way, to encourage broader use in the department. A final technical write-up and presentation will be expected. Example projects may include: Project 1: Expanding our spatial proteomics analytical toolkit: implementation of a multi-modal data integration pipeline to support spatial multi-omics studies Project 2: Assessing Methods for Estimating Unconditional Treatment Effects in Binary Endpoints and Evaluating Alternative Clinical Outcome Measures for Lupus Studies Project 3: Exploration of Bayesian borrowing using adult data in pediatric setting Project 4: Extending Prognostic Scores and Machine Learning Techniques to Improve Precision of Treatment Effect Estimation for Comparative Studies  Project 5: Evaluation of Real-World Effectiveness of Newly Approved Disease-Modifying Therapies using Instrumental Variable Analysis Project 6: Comparative evaluation of MAIC and STC – simulation-based analysis of bias, error, effective sample size and robustness
