With a strong academic background in Biochemistry, hands-on experience in microbial cultivation, bioinformatics, and fermentation processes, I am eager to contribute to your team’s efforts in advancing solid-state fermentation for edible fungi.
During my tenure as a Bioinformatics Intern at Silvius Technologies, I developed expertise in data analysis, sequence alignment, and molecular biology tools, which I believe are highly relevant to optimizing fermentation processes. My project on “Identifying Drug Targets in Cervical Cancer Using Gene Expression Data” allowed me to hone my skills in R programming, Python, and NGS data analysis, which I am keen to apply in monitoring and improving fungal growth and product quality at Vivid Nutripharm.
In addition to my bioinformatics experience, I have hands-on laboratory skills that align perfectly with the requirements of this role. My academic thesis on “Isolation, Identification, and Characterization of Actinomycetes” provided me with practical experience in microbial handling, aseptic techniques, and laboratory safety protocols. I am proficient in substrate preparation, sampling and analysis, and equipment maintenance, ensuring optimal fermentation conditions and high-quality outputs.
Here are some of the key skills I bring to the table:
– Technical Skills: Microbial cultivation, fermentation equipment (bioreactors, incubators, sterilizers), microbiological testing, and aseptic techniques.
– Bioinformatics Tools: Python, R, Linux, NGS tools (GATK, BWA, Bowtie2), and AWS for data analysis and pipeline development.
– Laboratory Skills: Substrate preparation, sampling and analysis, equipment maintenance, cleanroom practices, and adherence to safety protocols.
– Soft Skills: Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, teamwork, and effective communication.
I am particularly drawn to this role because of Vivid Nutripharm’s focus on edible fungi and sustainable biotechnology. I am eager to bring my technical expertise, problem-solving abilities, and collaborative spirit to your team, contributing to the development of innovative fermentation protocols and high-quality products.
Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my skills and experiences align with the needs of your team. I am available at your earliest convenience for an interview and can be reached at [redacted].
Looking forward to hearing from you.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Sir/Madam,
I am Dr. Sauradipta Banerjee, [hidden] awarded in the Department of Biophysics, Calcutta University. I am writing this letter in connection to my application, interest and motivation for the advertised position. I have completed my [hidden] in Microbiology (HONS.) and [hidden] in Biochemistry with first class from Calcutta University. I have qualified GATE ([hidden] percentile) and CSIR-NET (JRF) in Life Sciences.
The broad area of my doctoral research was on characterization of protein modification in the context of diabetic complications. The major part of the study was the analysis of protein glycation by mass spectrometry based proteomic studies in order to identify the site(s) and nature of protein modifications. This has considerable biological relevance in the context of understanding the nature and role of post-translational modifications in different protein conformational disorders, and has important implications in the field of modern biology, as well as clinical and analytical biochemistry. During post-doctoral research, I have explored the inhibitory role of small molecule ligands on protein aggregation, with potential therapeutic implications in treatment of protein conformational disorders. I have exhaustively characterized protein modification by MALDI-MS, ESI-MS as well as peptide mass fingerprinting and associated MS/MS studies.

With reference to my research work to date, I have 23 publications in peer-reviewed international journals, majority of which are in first authorship or as corresponding sole author. I have been awarded with three postdoctoral fellowships (SERB National Post-doctoral Fellowship, CSIR and ICMR Research Associate-ship) and presently have 5 years of [hidden] research experience. In addition, I am a peer reviewer in several international journals of repute, namely, Current Organic Chemistry, Archives of Food and Nutrition, Journal of Agricultural and Food chemistry, Journal of Biomolecular structure and Dynamics, Spectrochimica Acta A and Scientific Reports. I also have several years of working experience as principal investigator (PI) in SERB and ICMR-sponsored projects, respectively.

Considering my academic credentials, background and considerable years of research experience in the concerned area, I feel myself suitable for the desired position, and will be highly obliged if you may kindly consider my application accordingly.

Thanking you again,
Sincerely yours,

Dr. Sauradipta Banerjee
