Pradnya Manvi

I’m a biotechnology research professional focused on molecular biology experiments, laboratory operations, and scientific documentation. My work spans experimental design, sample processing, data analysis, and research project coordination, with a strong emphasis on maintaining data integrity and staying compliant with GLP, SOPs, and quality standards.

In my current role as a Project Assistant at the Institute of Agricultural Biotechnology, I executed DNA isolation, PCR, and agarose gel electrophoresis for 250+ plant samples supporting a government-funded molecular breeding project. I also manage laboratory inventory, reagent preparation, and equipment maintenance, represent the project during audits and review meetings, and facilitate practical training sessions on basic molecular biology techniques. Previously, as an intern at Cipla Limited, I supported analytical testing using HPLC, FTIR, and UV-Visible Spectrophotometry, contributing to quality control, instrument operation, and laboratory documentation within a regulated pharmaceutical environment.
