With a Master’s degree in Microbiology and hands-on experience in both academic research and life science data indexing, I believe I possess the ideal blend of scientific knowledge and analytical skills for this role.
    During my tenure as a Trainee Research Assistant at ICAR-CIFT, I was actively involved in disease-related research involving antimicrobial efficacy, wound healing, and biocompatibility testing. My work involved handling biological data, histopathology, and tissue imaging—developing my ability to extract, interpret, and document scientific information with accuracy. I further enhanced my data curation skills during my time at Spi Technologies, where I indexed scientific literature.
    My academic background and practical experiences have also equipped me with a keen understanding of gene-disease relationships, microbiological techniques, and a strong attention to detail—qualities I understand are vital for a bio-curation role.
    I am excited by the opportunity to contribute to E-Merge Tech’s mission. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background aligns with your needs in more detail.
    Thank you for your time and consideration.
    Sincerely,
    Krishnaja R

    Dear Hiring Manager,

    I’m writing to express my interest in an opportunity in your biotech team. I’m currently in my final year of B.Tech in Biotechnology at Shri Ramswaroop Memorial University, and over the past few years, I’ve had the chance to gain practical experience in labs and research settings—something I truly enjoy and am eager to keep pursuing.

    During my internships at Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia Institute of Medical Sciences and NRBPL, I got to work directly with clinical biochemistry labs and microbiology testing. Whether it was managing data, assisting with lab tasks, or just observing how a well-run lab functions, I learned a lot about how important precision and consistency are in this field.

    One project I’m especially proud of was focused on synthesizing zinc nanoparticles using Tinospora cordifolia, and studying their antifungal effects. It gave me a real appreciation for how research can directly contribute to solving practical challenges in healthcare and agriculture. It also deepened my interest in the connection between biotechnology and real-world impact.

    I’m comfortable with data handling tools like Excel and Microsoft Office.

    More than anything, I’m excited to start contributing, learning, and growing as a part of a team that values science, curiosity, and collaboration. I’d love the chance to talk more about how I can be a part of your work.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this.

    Warm regards,
    Priya Agrahari
