What We Do:

Neurocrine Biosciences is a leading neuroscience-focused, biopharmaceutical company with a simple purpose: to relieve suffering for people with great needs. We are dedicated to discovering and developing life-changing treatments for patients with under-addressed neurological, neuroendocrine and neuropsychiatric disorders. The company's diverse portfolio includes FDA-approved treatments for tardive dyskinesia, chorea associated with Huntington's disease, classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, endometriosis* and uterine fibroids,* as well as a robust pipeline including multiple compounds in mid- to late-phase clinical development across our core therapeutic areas. For three decades, we have applied our unique insight into neuroscience and the interconnections between brain and body systems to treat complex conditions. We relentlessly pursue medicines to ease the burden of debilitating diseases and disorders because you deserve brave science.

About the Role:

Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: NBIX) is offering the opportunity to gain hand-on experience in pharmacoepidemiology, rea-world evidence (RWE), and observational research within the world of biotechnology. Our intern program offers exposure to epidemiologic study design, systematic literature review methods, real-world data (RWD) analysis, and background rate characterization, while collaborating closely with cross-functional partners across ADS, DSPV, Medical Affairs, Clinical Development, Biostatistics, and HEOR. The ADS EPI/RWE team has a strong reputation in the industry for rigorous methodology, scientific innovation, and high-impact contributions to product value demonstration, reimbursement strategy, safety decision-making, and HTA support.

Your Contributions (include, but are not limited to):

• Utilize in-house databases, licensed real-world data (RWD) sources, and external partner resources to characterize diseases of interest, including assessments of disease burden, incidence, prevalence, and progression.
• Conduct systematic and targeted literature reviews to describe epidemiology, natural history, and background event rates for outcomes relevant to Neurocrine programs.
• Support development of scientific study materials—including study concepts, protocols, analysis plans, mock tables, and written summaries—for internal stakeholders and regulatory/scientific communications.
• Observe and contribute to the day-to-day workflows of RWE study leads, gaining exposure to study planning, feasibility assessments, execution, and cross-functional scientific review.
• Assist with data extraction, evidence synthesis, and preparation of slide decks summarizing epidemiologic findings for safety, clinical, and value-based decision-making.
• Contribute to exploratory analyses using claims, EHR, registry, or other RWD datasets under the guidance of senior epidemiologists.
• Participate in cross-functional meetings with Biostatistics, DSPV, Medical Affairs, HEOR, and Clinical Development to understand how epidemiology and RWE inform safety evaluation, trial design, and product strategy.
• Complete a dedicated Epidemiology/RWE capstone project and present findings and recommendations to senior leadership at the end of the internship.

Requirements:

• Currently enrolled in a degree program in Epidemiology, Pharmacoepidemiology, Biostatistics, or a related public health discipline at an accredited institution.
• Strong understanding of observational research methods, including study design, bias, confounding, and causal inference; familiarity with modern epidemiologic and pharmacoepidemiologic concepts.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly synthesize and present complex data to both scientific and non-scientific audiences.
• Demonstrated motivation, attention to detail, and strong work ethic, with the ability to work both independently and collaboratively.
• Experience with registry, administrative claims, or electronic health record (EHR) data is preferred.
• Experience or coursework involving rare diseases, genetic epidemiology, or demography is desirable.
• Ability to commit to a full-time (40 hours/week) internship during June–August 2026.
• Hands-on experience analyzing real-world data (e.g., claims, EHR, registry).
• Exposure to research in rare diseases, genetic epidemiology, or population demography.
• Proficiency with analytical tools such as R, Python, SAS, or similar statistical software.
• Familiarity with systematic review platforms (e.g., DistillerSR, Covidence) or RWD analytics environments.
