About the Role
The Chemistry Laboratory Internship Program offers hands-on experience in a regulated analytical testing laboratory, specializing in food and environmental allergen detection. Interns will engage with allergen testing workflows, including ELISA-based immunoassays, sample preparation, extraction, and data review processes. The program aims to build practical understanding of laboratory operations, quality systems, and data integrity through direct involvement in an applied project. By the end of the program, interns will understand allergen testing workflows, gain exposure to analytical chemistry and immunoassay principles, learn how quality systems support laboratory accuracy and compliance, develop experience in data analysis and operational improvement projects, and build foundational skills applicable to analytical and diagnostic laboratory careers.
