What I'm looking for

I seek an entry-level role blending scientific research and writing in a collaborative, learning-focused environment where I can grow technical skills and communicate complex ideas clearly.

I am an M.Sc. in Biotechnology with hands-on research experience in microbiology, cell culture, and bioprocess development gained through academic projects and a research assistant internship.

During my internship at JNTUH I assisted in optimization of biohydrogen production using micro-algae, contributing to a 10% yield increase and implementing quality guidelines that improved data reproducibility.

I am skilled in laboratory techniques, molecular biology, biostatistics, bioinformatics, and data analysis using Microsoft Excel, and I produce clear graphs and reports to support research conclusions.

I am seeking an entry-level content writing role where I can combine my inquisitive nature and analytical skills to produce well-researched, accurate, and engaging scientific content for a variety of platforms.
