Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to express my enthusiasm for the Bioinformatics Specialist position at Cadila Pharmaceuticals. With a Master’s degree in Biotechnology and a strong foundation in bioinformatics, Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), and data analytics, I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to Cadila Pharmaceuticals’ innovative work in bioinformatics.
Through various courses and projects, I have developed hands-on experience with reference-based genome sequencing, variant calling analysis by DNASeq and various bioinformatics tools for data analysis. My academic and project experience has also equipped me with skills in data analytics, where I have utilized Python (Numpy, Pandas, Matplotlib) and R (ggplot, Geo Explorer) to analyze and visualize complex datasets.
In addition to my technical skills, I have gained experience with several bioinformatics databases and tools, including NCBI (Pubmed, Pubchem, Nucleotide, Geo, SRA), UCSC Genome Browser, PDB, and DrugBank. I have conducted molecular docking studies using Patchdock, Firedock, Autodock Vina, PLIP, PyMOL, RasMol, and Open Babel, and I am familiar with networking tools like STRING and Cytoscape, as well as BLAST and MEGA software. Throughout my academic and project work, I have honed my ability to summarize complex data into actionable insights and prepare detailed reports, scientific manuscripts, and presentations. My soft skills, such as effective communication, problem-solving, innovation, critical thinking, team orientation, and time management, have been key to my success.
I am proficient in utilizing Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint). Additionally, I have contributed to scientific knowledge through my publication in the Journal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology: • Pujari, I., Sengupta, R. & Babu, [hidden] Docking and ADMET Studies for investigating the anticancer potency of Moscatilin on APC10/DOC1 and PKM2 against five clinical drugs. J Genet Eng Biotechnol, 19, 161 (2021).
I am particularly drawn to Cadila Pharmaceuticals’ pioneering work in advancing bioinformatics. I am eager to bring my perspective, technical expertise, and passion for bioinformatics to your organization.
Sincerely,
**RITOBRATA SENGUPTA**
