You can read more about what our previous policy interns have worked on and gone on to do in our case study booklet. Applications are welcomed for 12-week internships taking place from July 2026 to June 2027. Applications will be considered as they come in. About the Academy of Medical Sciences The Academy of Medical Sciences is the independent, expert voice of biomedical and health research in the UK. Our elected Fellows are the UK's leading medical scientists from hospitals, academia, industry and the public service. Our vision is good health for all supported by the best research and evidence. Our mission is to help create an open and progressive research sector to improve the health of people everywhere. Our strategy for focuses on the following strategic priorities. Influence policy and practice to improve the lives of patients, the public and communities Support UK biomedical and health research to strengthen its global competitiveness and reputation Support the next generation of researchers to reach their full potential Work with our partners to increase the Academy's impact on global health Build our resources to ensure our long term independence and effectiveness Job description The Academy's policy work addresses issues of medical science, healthcare and biomedical careers. This work can take many forms: major reports, shorter position papers, seminars and workshops, correspondence, representation on Government and external panels, evidence to Parliamentary committees, private meetings and roundtables with key decision makers. During the 12-week internship, students will be involved in a variety of activities that will give them experience of many aspects of medical science policy and related activities. This will include one or more discrete projects led by the intern. The range of activities may include: Writing, editing, proofreading and referencing policy papers, e.g. responses to public consultations, papers and summaries for working groups, Council or Officers meetings. Desk based research and scoping, e.g. preparing project proposals or undertaking literature reviews. Evidence gathering and preparation, e.g. preparation of contacts lists, drafting calls for evidence, collating and summarising evidence.

Timing of Internship The 2026/27 internship scheme will run four times: from July 2026 - September 2026, October 2026 - December 2026, January 2027 - March 2027 and April 2027 - June 2027.
