Cover Letter:

# I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my keen interest in the post of Techno-Functional Business Analyst-EY
With a strong background in **Medical Biotechnology**, coupled with extensive experience in clinical and computational biology, I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to contribute to innovative and collaborative research initiatives. Throughout my academic journey, I have actively engaged in various research projects, refining my analytical skills and gaining hands-on experience in addressing complex scientific challenges.
Of particular relevance is my dissertation work, where I conducted **in-silico analyses of SNPs in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, focusing on next-generation drug resistance mechanisms**. Additionally, I have acquired expertise in project management through my involvement in a study exploring genetic polymorphism in the Paraoxonase (PON1) gene and its correlation with pesticide exposure.

I am currently working in the PMR department on an Assistive Technology project as Project Research Associate. I have extensive knowledge of clinical data management gained through participating in various CMEs in the PMR department, including the Cardiac Rehabilitation CME and the CME for Assistive Technology conducted by ICMR.

I have attached my curriculum vitae for your perusal, which provides further details about my qualifications and experiences.
I am particularly drawn to the research opportunities offered within your organization, especially the chance to contribute to this project which is advertised by you. I am confident that my skills and experiences align well with the requirements of this position, and I am eager to bring my expertise to your team.
Thank you for considering my application. I am looking forward to the possibility of discussing how my background, skills, and interests can contribute to the success of your team and organization.
Yours faithfully
