M.Sc Biotechnology

I want to delve deeper into the intricacies of life and doing it with the help of bioinformatics will only widen my interests and it will act as stepping stone towards my aim. Being quite naive, I feel that microRNAs are one of the missing pieces of the jigsaw puzzles of life by understanding them I will get one step closer to my aim. I also have interests in comparative Epigenomics and futuristic Sequencing methods which will help me advanced towards my goal at a steady pace.
