Cover Letter:

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my keen interest in the Genome Analyst position at MedGenome. With a Master’s degree in Medical Biotechnology and research experience in molecular and cell biology, I am eager to contribute to MedGenome’s mission of advancing precision medicine through genomic research.
During my time as a Project Associate at CSIR-Institute of Microbial Technology, I worked extensively with biochemical assays, protein-protein interactions, and mammalian cell culture. My research on small G-proteins and their regulatory mechanisms has deepened my understanding of genetic variations and their impact on cellular pathways. Additionally, my knowledge in bioinformatics tools and microbiology aligns with the analytical aspects of genome research.
The opportunity to analyze genetic variations, interpret sequencing data, and contribute to diagnostics and therapeutic advancements excites [hidden] have attached my resume for your review and would like to have an opportunity to discuss how my background aligns with the role. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to the possibility of joining MedGenome’s esteemed team.

Best Regards
Medha
