About Tehmin Raj
With over 14 years of experience in molecular biology and DNA sequencing, I was working as a Lab Operations Manager at MEDGENOME, a leading genomics and clinical research company. I managed all MICRA production operations in the Bangalore lab, including COVID testing and other PCR, RTPCR, and NGS based tests. I also ensured complete accuracy and lab turnaround time for all MICRA and MTB academic projects, as well as provided pre-sales support and proposal generation for infectious disease projects.I have extensive expertise in Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), Sanger sequencing, qPCR, and molecular diagnosis of various genetic disorders, using state-of-the-art equipment and platforms such as NovaSeq NextSeq 500, SeqStudio, QuantStudio5, Quantstudio S (digital PCR), Bioanalyzer, Tape station, Ion Gene Studio S5 and Ion Chef System. I have performed and analyzed molecular biology assays, resolved complex clinical and instrument problems, and generated accurate and reliable reports for multiple projects. I have also trained students and customers on designing and conducting genomics experiments and contributed to the branding of new tests. I am diligent, focused, and committed to delivering timely and quality results for all lab procedures.
