Cover Letter:

This is Nancy Goyal, PhD scholar from Bhabha atomic research centre, Mumbai. I have seen your post for research scientist position on Biotechnika. I am interested in this opportunity.
I will be submitting my thesis shortly, however I can join immediately. I am efficient in cell cultures maintaining and their assays, clinical research, it’s data analysis, and also in animal handling.
I have done pre-clinical studies in my project for antihypertensive effect of my extracted peptide. I am confident in working with the team and alone whenever required.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
