**Hiring Manager**
MedGenome Labs Pvt. Ltd.
Subject: Application for the Position of Genome Analyst Trainee
Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to express my keen interest in the Genome Analyst Trainee position at MedGenome Labs. With a strong academic background in biotechnology and botany, complemented by hands-on experience in both wet-lab techniques and computational tools, I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the cutting-edge genomic research and diagnostics being conducted at your organization.
During my postgraduate studies in Biotechnology at the Central University of Rajasthan, I developed a strong foundation in molecular biology, bioinformatics, and protein science. My Master’s thesis on _Protein Aggregation in a Peanut Protein Supplement_ involved extensive work in protein extraction, purification, electrophoresis, and spectroscopic techniques such as UV-Visible and fluorescence spectroscopy. Additionally, I gained practical exposure to advanced tools during internships and training programs, including a workshop on NMR spectroscopy at IISER Bhopal and a summer project using a reverse vaccinomics approach to design a universal subunit influenza vaccine.
My passion for integrating computational methods with life sciences led me to pursue a training program in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Biology and Bioinformatics. Through this program, I developed foundational skills in Python and R for data analysis and visualization. I am also proficient with the Linux command line for automating bioinformatics tasks and familiar with molecular modeling tools like PyMOL. These skills, combined with proficiency in MS Office, enable me to analyze large datasets, communicate findings effectively, and work seamlessly within interdisciplinary teams.
English has consistently been the medium of my academic and professional communication, enhancing my ability to deliver scientific presentations, prepare reports, and collaborate across diverse teams. I am particularly drawn to MedGenome Labs for its pioneering role in applying genomics to improve human health and its vibrant research environment. I am eager to contribute my enthusiasm, analytical thinking, and technical skills to support your mission and grow as part of your innovative team.
Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background aligns with your team’s goals. I am available for an interview at your convenience.
Sincerely,
**Indu Singh**
