>>Seeking Summer Interns
>>
>>Agrivida creates renewable fuels and chemicals from agricultural
>>crops.  Many of these products are traditionally made from
>>petroleum-based resources, however, Agrivida?s technology enables
>>manufacturers to use plant raw materials for efficient and economical
>>production.  Our initial projects are focused on plant molecular
>>biology for the production of fermentation chemicals and
>>pharmaceuticals.  Although we are aggressively entering these market
>>sectors, our long-term goals are to have an even greater impact in
>>these industries.
>>
>>We still have several openings for full-time undergraduate interns in
>>biology.  If you are looking for summer work within an exciting early
>>stage biotechnology company, please send a cover letter and resume to
>>the email address below, with the subject line ?internship.?
