Biotech Laboratory Assistant Internship - 6 Months

Join us as a Biotech Laboratory Assistant Intern, and you contribute to the development of manufacturing processes and quality control methods for macromolecule binding on specialized surfaces. This is a hands-on role ideal for students in biotechnology, molecular biology, or related fields. 

As Biotech Laboratory Assistant Intern, your role and responsibilities will be:

Liquid Handling:

Accurately pipette and prepare small-volume solutions containing DNA and proteins. 

Printing Technologies:

Assist in using advanced non-contact microdispensing and printing systems to deposit precise volumes of biological reagents onto specialized surfaces. 

Surface Chemistry:

Support experiments involving the binding of macromolecules (e.g., proteins, DNA) to epoxysilane-coated surfaces, commonly used in diagnostic platforms. 

Quality Control Development: 

• Assist in establishing quantitative evaluation methods for macromolecule binding efficiency. 
• Use techniques such as fluorescence labeling, spectrophotometry, or surface analysis to assess binding performance. 
• Contribute to the design of reproducibility and stability tests for coated surfaces. 
• Help document and analyze results to support method validation. 

YOUR COMPETENCIES

• Enrolled in a Bachelor’s or Master’s program in Biotechnology, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, or a related field. 
• Basic lab skills: pipetting, solution preparation, and safe handling of biological materials. 
• Interest or experience in surface chemistry or diagnostic assay development is a plus. 
• Proficient in English; French is an asset.
