For anyone who is looking for post-undergraduate or summer internship opportunities, NIH currently has openings.
https://www.training.nih.gov/programs/sip
https://www.training.nih.gov/programs/postbac_irta
There are plenty of PIs looking for students interested in developing software for bioinformatics / biostatistics. I know this because I'm one the investigators who is recruiting students for this type of research :D -- we're looking for students interested in developing machine learning methods for microbiome / metabolomics meta-analysis.
There is a zoom information session on Jan 12th 3pm ET at https://nih.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/vJItd--pqD4rGYguRUHBzfalIOfLqegNMsM. And there is another summer internship zoom information session on Jan 5th 3pm ET at https://nih.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/vJItc-CppjIjE2_U_cNlbfprH3-WbgFwCMc
So if you are interested, take a look and apply! And feel free to follow up with any questions :)
EDIT : this is for the summer internship / postbac program in general -- there are something like 30k scientists at NIH from a bunch of different backgrounds that look into this application pool.
EDIT : there is no deadline for the postbac application.
Hi,
I've recently come across posts and articles which mentioned NIT's having pretty stringent rules
https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-9a00122659a18c21136cbb770d5e4a87 ( for reference).
I tried to search up on google and other platforms to check how the rules are in NIT Andhra Pradesh but couldn't find anything.
Any clarification on this will be happily accepted.
Thanks :>

The circulatory system in the human body spans 66,000 miles, or more than two and a half times the circumference of the Earth.The fundamental role of the system is to deliver blood, nutrients, gases, and hormones to and from cells all over the body. Your body's blood is always flowing. The heart beats 2.5 billion times during the life of a 75-year-old. The heart expels 2 ounces of blood with each beat, five quarts of blood each minute, 220 million quarts in 70 years.
NIST has just updated its metric writing guide Writing with SI (Metric System) Units
Some points it raises:
β’ The guide emphasises American spelling:
>NIST guides use American spelling. All units and prefixes should be spelled as shown in this guide. Examples: meter, liter, and deka, NOT metre, litre, and deca.
β’ The guide mentions that "degree centigrade" and "micron" are not to be used and recommends "metric ton" rather than "tonne".
β’ Under the heading Paper Sizes it says "The International System of Units (SI) is about measuring the weight or dimensions of objects, not changing their sizes. The U.S. paper industry uses several customary paper formats that all have metric dimensions." So they are not promoting the ISO 216 metric paper series.
Here is the link: https://www.fpds.gov/ezsearch/search.do?q=Palantir&s=FPDS.GOV&templateName=1.5.2&indexName=awardfull&sortBy=SIGNED_DATE&desc=Y Click "view" on the first contract to learn more about the deal. Total value is 58 million.
After winning contracts with a total deal value over 900 mil.usd last quarter, it seems that PLTR is again doing great, at least in the government segment. As you can see in the link that I have provided, since September 23rd a total of 11 new deals were completed. (new contracts, plus options that were exercised). It also looks like that they are not only forming new partnerships, but they are also strengthening their relationship with agencies that are already clients. For example, they have worked with the NHI since 2018, created a specialised platform for managing the vaccine distribution in 2020 for them and now their collaboration continues with this new contract. I am an investor in PLTR and I think that one of the most bullish indicators is the fact that their software "sticks like glue". They have very high-customer retention rates and that is not only beneficial for the company in the financial aspect, but also shows the quality of their services
