Bioinformatics Project Intern at Mediomix Diagnosis & Bioresearch Pvt. Ltd.; analyzed PGPR genomes to identify SNPs linked to plant growth traits.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At Mediomix Diagnosis & Bioresearch Pvt. Ltd., I ran whole-genome sequencing and SNP analysis on plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria as part of an agricultural genomics study. I processed reads, called and annotated variants, and worked with the senior team to interpret findings and prepare project summaries.
For my M.Sc. dissertation, I sequenced and analyzed PGPR genomes to identify SNPs associated with plant growth promotion and stress tolerance. I used variant callers and annotation tools to connect genetic variants with functional traits.
My projects also include RNA-seq and somatic mutation analysis of TCGA lung adenocarcinoma, and structure-based docking of phytochemicals against pneumolysin. I use Python, R, and Linux-based analysis workflows, and I'm looking to apply my background in genomics or computational drug discovery research.
