This is Guru Swamy working as a Junior Scientist in Dr.Reddy’s Biologics Development Center in India,

I did my Post Graduation in Chemistry from J.N.T University, Hyderabad, India in year 2002 and graduation in chemistry from Osmania University, Hyderabad, India in year 1999.

After my Post Graduation I joined in Dabur Research Foundation, India and worked there as a Sr.Research Scientist for 50 months in Discovery Analytical Development (HPLC, LC-ESI MS/MS).

After that i joined in Jubilant Biosys Discovery Center, India and worked there as a Sr.Research Associate for 8 months in Drug Metabolism and Pharmako kinetics (HPLC, LC-ESI MS/MS).

Since last One Year I am working in Dr.Reddys Biologics Development Center, India as a Junior Scientist on “LC-ESI-MS/MS and MALDI TOF TOF”

I am looking for Ph.D. studentship position, please let me know,

Presently, I am a Senior Medical Laboratory Scientist/Lecturer at the Federal College of Veterinary and Medical Laboratory Technology, National Veterinary Research Institute, Vom, located in Jos, Plateau state, Nigeria where I teach Haematology/Blood Group Serology. I also participate in our departmental research activities and routine laboratory services. As a result, I have had the opportunity to supervise students that work in various areas of Immunology, Haematology and Microbiology.

Furthermore, I participated in a Tuberculosis research programme at the British Medical Research Council Laboratories, The Gambia as Scientific Officer between April 2002 and February 2007. During this period we designed and established a TB Case-Contact cohort from which we generated great scientific and epidemiological data and publications. Consequent upon this and following the successful completion of my MSc study in Biomedical Science, I acquired knowledge and expertise in the application of modern research tools, and developed interest in undertaking further research that could lead to the award of PhD in the area of Life and Biomedical Sciences.

Therefore, I wish to request that you kindly consider me for a place on your grants for Doctoral – PhD thesis in Immunology of Infectious agents, Germany 2008.

Thank you.
