Bioinformatics For Climate Research - Internship
Energy Alternatives India
Energy Alternatives India (EAI) is seeking interns to contribute to research
at the intersection of bioinformatics and climate science. This role focuses
on exploring how biological data, computational methods, and systems biology
can support innovations in climate resilience, sustainable bioresource
utilization, and low-carbon biotechnology.
Selected intern's day-to-day responsibilites include:
1\. Analyze genomic, proteomic, or metabolic datasets to identify patterns
that can inform climate-related biological solutions, such as carbon capture
through microbes, bioenergy production, and ecosystem restoration.
2\. Use bioinformatics tools and databases to model biological systems
relevant to sustainability - including microbial metabolism, plant genomics
for stress tolerance, and enzymatic pathways for green chemistry.
3\. Conduct in-depth reviews of recent scientific studies that apply
bioinformatics in areas like bioremediation, biofuels, and synthetic biology
for climate mitigation.
4\. Identify and assess bioinformatics platforms, datasets, and AI-based tools
that support research on climate-adaptive and carbon-reducing biological
processes.
5\. Prepare concise research summaries, data reports, and briefs outlining key
insights and potential bioinformatics-driven approaches for climate research
and sustainable development.
6\. Work with EAI's research and consulting teams on studies involving bio-
based climate solutions, providing data analysis and computational insights.
7\. Stay informed about emerging trends in bioinformatics, omics technologies,
and environmental biotechnology to contribute innovative perspectives to
ongoing projects.
