Are there any online/offline internships in bioinformatics? Stipend does not matter. I'll be able to invest 2 hours per day. (I can’t give it more time than that because I have some competitive exams too give but I also genuinely want to deal with new stuff or just polish older skills) I'm doing this to learn more and brush up what I've learnt already.

Skills: Python, C, Data mining, MSA, Evolutionary analysis,

I’ll be very grateful if someone can suggest me something useful.

PS- I'm a very hard working person and though I'm not willing to invest much time, I can assure you good quality work under good guidance and a reasonable deadline.

Why not pick an open source bioinformatics project that you understand well and start contributing code, adding features, etc?

Can you give me some suggestions? I'm into evolutionary bioinformatics. :)
