DojoHouse is a biotech co-living house that hosts talented undergraduates from the U.S. and Canada who are interested in becoming the next top biotech founders and innovators. The program hopes to build a community of people who can make significant advances to hard biotech problems in their undergraduate years. It provides intellectual, logistical, and financial support to members as they intern in various academic research labs, cutting-edge biotech startups, or deep-tech VC firms. In 2025, year, both DojoHouses will run from June 1 to August 11, 2025.
Boston and San Francisco are vibrant hubs of innovative biotech startups and groundbreaking biology and bioengineering research. However, for many, the cost of living and navigating the system are barriers to success. The House hopes to guide anyone, regardless of their financial circumstances or background, to make the most of their experience.
The DojoHouse is intended for students who otherwise would lack access to biotech knowledge and opportunities. The 2025 selection process will place an added focus on students who have the passion and aptitude to become the next top biotech founders, as well as students traditionally underrepresented in STEM.
The only prerequisite is that you find an in-person internship based in Boston/Cambridge or San Francisco by early April. Read this FAQ to learn more about what it's like to be a House member!
