Subject: Application for Genome Analyst Position
Dear Members of the Search Committee,
I am writing to express my keen interest in the Genome Analyst position at MedGenome Labs Ltd. With a Ph.D. in Microbiology and extensive experience in microbial ecology, molecular biology, and bioinformatics, I am eager to contribute my expertise to your ongoing research initiatives. My academic and professional background aligns closely with MedGenome’s focus on genomics-driven insights for advancing healthcare and agriculture.
Currently, I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Microbiology at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi, India, with an expected completion in May 2025. My doctoral research focuses on plant-associated microbiomes, specifically investigating the structural and functional dynamics of desert monocot root microbiomes and their role in promoting crop resilience under drought conditions. Utilizing next-generation sequencing (NGS) approaches, I have conducted metagenomic analyses and transcriptome profiling to understand how microbial communities influence plant gene regulation in response to environmental stress. Through this work, I have developed proficiency in bioinformatics tools such as QIIME, R, and MEGA, along with a strong understanding of microbial ecology and functional genomics.
My academic foundation in Biotechnology began with a Bachelor’s degree from the Meerut Institute of Engineering and Technology, India, followed by a Master’s in Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology from Banasthali Vidyapith, India. During my Master’s, I conducted my dissertation at the National Institute of Plant Biotechnology, New Delhi, gaining hands-on experience in bacterial culture, plasmid DNA isolation, cloning, PCR, and recombinant clone analysis. Following this, I worked as a Senior Research Fellow at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, where I focused on microbial technologies for biopolymer and biomolecule production. My responsibilities included isolating and characterizing PHB-producing bacteria and cloning the phbC gene from high-yield strains, further strengthening my skills in molecular biology, microbial characterization, and DNA manipulation.
I am particularly excited about the prospect of joining MedGenome Labs and contributing to its innovative research in genomics. My expertise in microbial genomics, functional analysis, and plant-microbiome interactions equips me to effectively support the lab’s ongoing and future projects. I am confident that my skills and research experience align well with the requirements of this role.
