I am Vinod Kumar. I completed my MSc in Medical Biochemistry at Yenepoya Medical University and currently work as an assistant professor in Kyrgyzstan. I also completed a 10-month internship at an NABL lab (5600 vitreous laboratory). I have experience in genetics and in clinical biochemistry laboratory departments such as serology, hematology, and microbiology.
Thanks for sharing your background. Your MSc in medical biochemistry plus laboratory experience in serology/hematology/microbiology and genetics sounds relevant to a PhD in biochemistry/molecular biology/biotechnology. Since the MAP-ID call is for 13 fully funded positions starting Oct 1, 2025, the key next step is to align your application materials (CV, motivation letter, and any research experience) with chronic inflammation work and the interdisciplinary academia–industry aspect mentioned in the program. If you tell me your target topic/skills, I can suggest how to frame your statement.
