High School and College Undergraduate Biomedical Informatics and Data Science Internship Program
We are now accepting applications for Summer 2022!
The Department of Medical Informatics and Clinical Epidemiology (DMICE) will be hosting High School and College Undergraduate Biomedical Informatics and Data Science Internships Summer 2022. These internships will provide full-time summer internships in data science and biomedical informatics to college undergraduates to increase their skills with respect to data literacy and stewardship. The program’s goals are to provide exposure to data science and informatics with respect to best practices, impact of research on medicine and health, as well as possible career path for interns. In addition to the research project, each intern will attend weekly Informatics Research Conferences and will present their work at the end of the internship in a mini-symposium.
Due to the funding agency, this program is open to U.S. Citizens and Permanent Residents only. High School students must be 16 years of age when the internship project begins.
Please Note: In compliance with Oregon law, OHSU's COVID-19 Immunization and Education policy will go in effect Oct. 18, 2021. Visitors, volunteers and inters who have an in-person experience at OHSU must be fully vaccinated (14 days after last dose). Exception requests will not be accepted. Please be prepared to provide proof of vaccination, or to receive a COVID-19 vaccination, as a requirement for onboarding for your in-person experience at OHSU. You will not be allowed to participate within OHSU if you are not compliant with this policy.
Biomedical Informatics Summer 2022 Internship Projects Oregon Health & Science University
Electronic Care Planning for Patients with Multiple Chronic Conditions
Faculty: Dr. David Dorr Collaborating on plans of care for patients with multiple chronic conditions can be challenging. Aligning patients’ values, goals, and preferences with medical evidence and many care teams’ input requires substantial work. A new application using Fast Healthcare Interoperable Resources that has both patient- and care team-facing components is being implemented at OHSU, and a student is sought to help design, implement, and evaluate usability and usefulness testing.
High Blood Pressure patient-facing clinical decision support
Faculty: Dr. David Dorr High blood pressure is one of the most common chronic conditions in adults older than 50, and the most common
contributing factor for heart attacks and strokes. Significant evidence exists about both pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic methods to lower blood pressure, but they require substantial shared decision making and patient motivation. The intern will help us with our patient-facing HBP application; depending on their skill set, help programming, testing, or evaluating the tool with patients and care teams.
Secondary use of electronic health record data
Faculty: Dr. Michelle Hribar My group focuses on the reuse of data in the electronic health record (EHR) for research in ophthalmology. Ongoing projects include analysis of data quality, building predictive models, and integration of models into the EHR. Skills: statistical analysis (e.g. R), computer programming.
Understanding the Role of the Microbiome in Bladder Health
Faculty: Dr. Lisa Karstens The overall goal of this research is to understand how the microbial communities of the gut, vagina, and bladder
contribute to bladder health and overactive bladder symptoms. Intern projects include developing, testing, and
improving the pipelines for handling the clinical data associated with these projects (using REDCap), and bioinformatic
pipelines for handling 16S rRNA gene sequencing data as well as NMR metabolomics data (primarily in R). The projects
will provide experience of analysis and biological interpretation of so-called 'big data' that arises from the rich and
complex datasets generated by high throughput techniques used in basic research. Excellent record-keeping skills and
self-motivation are essential. Some familiarity with programming and statistical analysis are preferred but not essential.

Paid Internship Opportunity - For Students Age 18+ Ampere Computing, a fabless semiconductor startup focused on server CPU’s for cloud computing, is looking to hire an LHS student for a newly created internship position!
Job description - The Ampere Internship is project based, with a focus on helping complete a financial tool scripted in excel that will provide a predictive cost model for motherboards – help keep us cost efficient. It will require a student with a strong attention to detail, ability to work independently, and able to come to the office sometimes after school. The Intern doesn’t need to love and know computers but it may be of more interest to the technically-minded student who kinda likes looking at schematics and learning about computer systems. No question, this person will leave with a better understanding of what we do and how it aligns with the semiconductor industry on a whole….as well as an excel wiz.
See next slide
Interns are supervised by Jeremy Burr, one of those industry leaders who is also a great teacher/mentor. Working at Ampere would be a great warm up to honing the important life and professional skills that will help you be successful in college – motivated self-starter, assertive, curious and willing to ask questions, and giving it your best effort. In addition to working on the project, the intern will have an opportunity to participate in team meetings and sit in on virtual international meetings that regularly take place at Ampere.
Pay: To be discussed during the interview process. Pay would be an hourly rate, likely minimum wage
Duration: Approximately 6 months, start date –(Nov preferred).
Hours Per Week: Approximately 10 hours/week with the understanding that some weeks may be less and some may be more. We get it. We were in high school once too. It’s a busy time for you.
To Apply: Must be 18+. Email your resume and a brief cover letter explaining why you are interested in this internship to Jeremy Burr, jburr@amperecomputing.com
