About Subsense

Subsense is a deep-tech company developing the world’s first non-surgical, bidirectional brain-computer interface powered by plasmonic and magnetoelectric nanoparticles. Our mission is to unlock direct communication between the human brain and AI - starting with medical applications such as stroke recovery and moving toward cognitive enhancement for healthy users. Headquartered in Palo Alto, Subsense brings together leading scientists and engineers to redefine the future of human–machine interaction.

We are looking for a Neuroscience Technician Intern to join our team and contribute directly to our in vivo research program. This is a hands-on, lab-based summer internship for an undergraduate student or early-career candidate with stereotactic injection experience and an interest in translational neuroscience.

You will work alongside our research team to support and advance experiments that are central to our technology development — with real scientific impact from day one.

Perform stereotactic surgeries for intracranial injections in mice (viral vectors, nanoparticles, or other agents)

Maintain animal colony and support basic husbandry under IACUC protocols

Contribute to ongoing in vivo experiments and participate in experimental design discussions

Maintain detailed, organized lab records and surgical logs

Run behavioral assays to assess motor and cognitive outcomes (a plus)

Perform histological processing, tissue sectioning, staining, and imaging (a plus)

Support data collection and preliminary analysis

Collaborate across the research team to keep experiments moving efficiently

Currently enrolled in a bachelors program in Neuroscience, Biology, Bioengineering, or a related field.

Demonstrated, hands-on experience with stereotactic injections in mice — this is a hard requirement

Proficiency in rodent handling and aseptic surgical technique

Strong attention to detail and ability to follow established protocols precisely
