The 2011 JCVI Internship Program is open to accept spring and summer applications. The application process includes the submission of a resume, essay and transcripts as one PDF file via our online application site. We no longer require letters of recommendation.
Information about the 2011 program can be found at http://www.weizhongli-lab.org/cms/education/internship-program/
Hopefully this winter, we won’t be hit with two MAJOR snow storms in Maryland that shut all the schools, the federal government and JCVI down for several days the week applications were due! I don’t think they are calling for much snow this year in the Washington Metropolitan Area. Of course, that is not a problem for our colleagues in San Diego.

sir i want to build my carrier in genomic please guide me…
I would like to know if international applicants are encouraged to apply
It says here that “We no longer require letters of recommendation”, but is it possible for references to submit letters of recommendation in lieu of a phone call?
My references, being teachers, prefer to be contacted by email rather than by phone.
Thank you for any help.
kindly let me know if international applicants are eligible to apply
