Subject: Application for Genome Analyst Position

Respected sir,

I am excited to apply for the Genome Analyst position at Medgenome. With a Master’s degree in Biotechnology (CGPA: [hidden]) and hands-on experience in molecular biology techniques, bioinformatics tools, and analytical assays, I am eager to contribute my expertise to your team.

During my dissertation, I investigated the anticancer and antioxidant properties of Crocus sativus flowers in cancer cell lines. This research involved green synthesized extraction techniques with assays involved such as MTT, ROS, colony forming assay, etc. I have experience in DNA/RNA isolation, protein estimation assays, analytical skills such as HPLC and qPCR, and computational tools like PyRx, SwissADME, and AutoDock for molecular docking and drug discovery.

My proficiency in both wet lab techniques and bioinformatics equips me to analyze genomic data effectively. I am highly motivated to apply my skills in genomics and data interpretation to advance research and innovation at Medgenome. I welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background aligns with your needs.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your response.

Best regards,
Pooja Tambe
