What are the responsibilities and job description for the INTERNSHIP Protein Modeling & Simulation position at Dassault Systèmes?
Role Description And Responsibilities
The Protein Modeling and Simulation team within Dassault Systèmes BIOVIA develops and validates scientific modeling, simulation, and design methods for our life sciences customers. As an intern on the team, you will have access to our advanced modeling and machine learning algorithms and state of the art visualization, and you will use the BIOVIA Discovery Studio suite with Pipeline Pilot for the development of novel features and research applications.
As part of your role, you will contribute to new methods that tackle protein design and drug discovery challenges such as protein structure prediction, robust de novo protein design, blind molecular docking, or molecular dynamics with machine-learned potentials. You will work with a senior developer on the team.
This work will expose you to the widely adopted scientific development platform, Pipeline Pilot, and innovative research topics in biologics and drug design.
As part of the development process, you will work with the Quality Assurance team to ensure automated test coverage of new functionality. Additionally, you will participate in discussions with Product Management and customer-facing teams on product direction and new features.
The Challenges ahead
Areas of interest for potential projects include but are not limited to the following:
