Cover Letter:

Mam,
I am writing to express my enthusiastic interest in Bioanalytical analyst, as advertised on BioTechNika. As an aspiring forensic scientist with a specialization in forensic biotechnology, molecular biology, genomics, and immunological techniques, my skills and experiences align perfectly with the requirements of this role.
During my M.Sc. in Forensic Sciences at National Forensic Sciences University, Goa Campus, and B.Sc. in Forensic Sciences at Jharkhand Raksha Shakti University, Ranchi, I gained a strong foundation in forensic biotechnology methodologies and hands-on experience in advanced laboratory techniques. My expertise includes DNA profiling, serology, biocomputing, proteomics, and biological evidence analysis, all crucial for supporting accurate criminal investigations.
My practical experience includes internships at the State Forensic Science Laboratory, Jharkhand, and Adelbert Innovation Research Private Limited, Kerala, where I contributed to projects like the “Development of Fluorescence to enhance the effectiveness of Cyanoacrylate Method” and “Estimation of Potential Protein Biomarker to Investigate Time Since Deposition of Semen.” I am proficient in a wide range of scientific techniques such as DNA Isolation, Gel Electrophoresis, STR Profiling, PCR, Sanger sequencing, NGS, and handling equipment like Genetic Analyzers and HPLC.
I am a detail-oriented professional with strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and the ability to critically think under pressure. My commitment to teamwork, effective communication, and lab proficiency further strengthens my ability to contribute meaningfully to your team.
I am eager to contribute my skills and passion to your organization and make a significant impact in the field of forensic science. Thank you for considering my application. I have attached my CV for your review and look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my qualifications can benefit your team.
Sincerely,
Abhilash Anand
