Genome Variant Interpretation Toolkit
Bioinformatics Web AppA full-stack web platform for SNP and CNV analysis supporting batch rsID queries and simulated genomic variant annotation workflows inspired by dbSNP and ClinVar datasets. Built using Python (Flask), HTML/CSS, and JSON-based genomic data models; deployed as an interactive genomics analysis tool.
BioLab Toolkit — DNA Analysis & Primer Design Tool
Molecular Web ToolAn interactive molecular biology web application for DNA sequence analysis, GC content calculation, reverse complement generation, transcription simulation, primer design with melting temperature estimation, and restriction enzyme digestion simulation.
Variant Predictor
AI / ML ToolAn AI-based tool that predicts whether a given mutation / genomic variation is benign or pathogenic in a specific DNA sequence, using both sequences and specific codons.
Performed DNA isolation, agarose gel electrophoresis, ELISA, and enzyme assay experiments during academic laboratory training. Maintained structured documentation of experimental protocols, observations, and results while adhering to laboratory safety procedures. Demonstrated strong proficiency in micropipetting, reagent preparation, and equipment handling with emphasis on precision and reproducibility.
