Nature, the international weekly journal of science, is seeking an intern reporter to work full-time in either its Washington, DC, or London offices. (Location will be determined by the nationality and work permit status of the successful candidate.) This six-month, paid position will begin in early July 2010.

Applicants should be self-starting and have a keen news sense. The intern will write news and other journalistic items for Nature’s website and print magazine. Please e-mail a cover letter, resume and three published articles to Mark Peplow (m.peplow_at_nature.com), Nature’s news editor, by 10 February. Put “internship application” in the subject line.
