Sohana Najrin — Product Manager
I am a Bioinformatician, I specialize in designing, optimizing, and running computational pipelines for a broad spectrum of genomic data. My work spans across various high-throughput sequencing data types, including whole genome sequencing (WGS), clinical whole genome mapping (WGM), clinical v3/v4 panels, and 16S rRNA microbiome analysis. With a strong foundation in both biology and data science, I work at the intersection of life sciences and technology to derive meaningful insights from complex datasets. I regularly process raw sequencing data, perform quality control, variant calling, annotation, differential gene expression, and microbial profiling—ensuring accuracy, reproducibility, and clinical relevance. I’m passionate about streamlining workflows, automating routine analyses, and contributing to solutions that advance research and clinical diagnostics. Whether it's customizing a pipeline for a specific research question or troubleshooting challenging datasets. Also,I bring strong technical skills in Python and shell scripting, which I use extensively to automate workflows, parse large datasets. My experience includes working with a variety of bioinformatics tools and platforms, such as BWA, GATK, Samtools,FastQC, DESeq2, Kraken2, QIIME2, PROKKA, and more. I have experience working in Linux-based HPC environments. My analytical work is supported by tools like R, Pandas, NumPy, and allowing me to perform robust statistical analyses and generate clear, insightful visualizations of complex biological data.
