About
A biotechnology student building fluency across lab work, genomic data, sustainability, and communication.
Undergraduate biotechnology student at KIIT University working across environmental bioinformatics, genomic data handling, laboratory techniques, and sustainable biotechnology. Her experience includes Python-based genomic data analysis, IoT-enabled vertical farming, Cryo-EM training, and student leadership through BIOGENIX - AI & Biotechnology Club.
Bio
Research-oriented, interdisciplinary, and still intentionally growing.
Antara Chakraborty is a biotechnology dual-degree student at KIIT School of Biotechnology, Bhubaneswar, with a strong academic record and growing experience across environmental bioinformatics, genomic data handling, laboratory techniques, and AI/IoT-enabled sustainable biotechnology.
Her work includes undergraduate research in environmental genomics, Python-based data analysis, and the integration of real-world genomic sequence data. She has also contributed to IoT and AI/ML-based vertical farming systems and is a named co-author on an Indian ideation patent related to sustainable vertical farming.
I am interested in biotechnology that does not stay limited to the laboratory. My focus is on how biological systems, computational methods, and intelligent technologies can work together to solve real-world problems in health, environment, and sustainability.
