5AM AI Fellowship - Boston (2H 2025)

Applications are due by Friday, June 27, 2025, 11:59pm EST. 

Proven leadership in venture capital investing and venture creation: Founded in 2002, 5AM Ventures is an early-stage biotech venture firm leveraging both venture creation (i.e., building biotech companies from scratch) and venture capital to bring new medicines to patients. 5AM leads syndicated Seed and Series A investments in early-stage therapeutics companies, and our 4:59 Initiative founds new biotech companies around scientific breakthroughs. 5AM Ventures has offices in San Francisco, CA and Boston, MA, and approximately $1.1B in regulatory assets under management.

Bringing new medicines to patients is our North Star: Companies that 5AM has built and invested in have achieved more than a dozen regulatory approvals to date. We build companies to transform patients’ lives.

Hands-on approach: Beyond leading investments and contributing as board members of our portfolio companies, our team is directly involved in strategy, management recruiting, business development, fundraising, and other operating roles in our companies.

5AM Fellowship Opportunity: The 5AM Ventures Fellowship provides an exclusive opportunity to gain experience in both venture creation and venture capital. We commit to supporting the careers of our fellows, and past fellows have successfully transitioned fellows to full-time positions in venture capital and biotech, business development, and healthcare consulting.
