Research and Development Intern

Job Description:

Job Summary The Research & Development Intern will support the development of one or more next-generation regenerative tissue products being developed at Ostoegenics Biomedical. This internship provides a unique opportunity to gain hands‑on experience in commercial product development. The successful candidate will contribute to laboratory research, experimental design, testing, data analysis, and prototype evaluation. This role is ideal for a Master's or PhD student seeking industry experience, though recent graduates and individuals who have already completed advanced degrees are welcome to apply.

If your academic program offers internship credit, we are willing to work with your institution to help satisfy applicable requirements.

• Perform hands-on laboratory work, including sample preparation, processing, characterization, and testing.
• Assist in the design, execution, and analysis of laboratory experiments supporting the development of novel regenerative tissue products.
• Collect, analyze, and summarize experimental data using scientific and statistical methods.
• Assist in the development and evaluation of new product concepts, prototypes, and manufacturing approaches.
• Conduct literature reviews to accelerate prototype development.
• Maintain accurate laboratory notebooks and research documentation.
• Support verification and validation testing activities related to product development.
• Participate in research discussions and contribute ideas for improving product performance, manufacturability, and clinical utility.
• Follow all laboratory safety procedures and applicable quality system requirements.

Direct exposure to commercial product development in regenerative medicine. Hands‑on experience translating scientific concepts into commercially viable products. Opportunities to execute experiments that influence real development decisions. Mentorship from experienced R&D professionals working in a regulated medical product environment. Exposure to product testing, product design, process development, and commercialization activities. Experience building technical skills highly valued in industry R&D careers.

• Naturally curious and driven to understand how biological and physical systems work.
• Enthusiastic about solving challenging scientific and engineering problems.
