Life-sciences internships and fellowships in India
This page lists both internships and fellowships, because the governed category they are published under covers the two together. They are not the same thing: an internship is usually a short, supervised placement tied to a degree or a vacation period, while a fellowship is normally a funded award with its own tenure, stipend and selection process. Read each listing's own terms rather than assuming which kind it is.
Every listing below is a published opportunity with its own deadline and official application route. Applications are made on the host institute's own portal — BioDisha never stands between you and the organisation, and the application link is public on every detail page.
Deadlines move quickly here and institutes rarely extend them. Check the eligibility line before you invest an afternoon in an application: Indian institute internships usually specify the degree and year of study, while fellowships more often specify a qualifying examination or a completed degree.
