Heredity Biosciences, Bhubaneswar
In the ever-evolving world of life sciences, hands-on skills are the true game changers. For me—Nikita Rani, a postgraduate biotechnology student—the difference between theory and application became crystal clear the moment I stepped into the Heredity Biosciences training laboratory in Bhubaneswar.
Over the past 3 months, I didn’t just complete a training—I lived an experience that reshaped my confidence, skills, and career aspirations.
Week 1–2: Foundation & Familiarization
I still remember the first day. Nervous yet excited, I was welcomed by a team of passionate scientists and mentors. Our journey began with an orientation to the lab safety protocols, SOPs, and daily documentation procedures.
We quickly dived into:
- DNA isolation from plant and bacterial samples
- Preparation of buffers and media
- Aseptic techniques and microbiological plating
- Spectrophotometric readings for nucleic acid quantification
“Unlike my college, here we were the ones running the experiments—not just watching.”
The hands-on practice built our muscle memory. And the mentorship ensured we understood not just the how, but also the why behind every step.
Week 3–6: Molecular Biology in Action
As we progressed, the training turned intense and exciting. I got the opportunity to:
- Prepare PCR Master Mix and run Polymerase Chain Reactions
- Visualize DNA on agarose gels
- Analyze gene expression experiments
- Understand primer design and result interpretation
Each procedure taught me troubleshooting—what to do when bands are missing, or when a gel smears. That real-time thinking isn’t something books can teach.
“I learned more practical molecular biology in 3 weeks here than in 3 years of university.”
Week 7–10: Research Exposure & Project Work
Here’s where things got serious.
Under guidance, I designed and executed a mini-research project:
“Antimicrobial activity of plant extracts against clinical bacterial isolates”
From sample preparation to result analysis, I was involved in every stage. I used disc diffusion methods, spectrophotometry, and basic statistical tools to analyze data.
This project helped me:
- Improve my scientific writing
- Learn data interpretation techniques
- Present my findings with confidence
- Build a strong profile for future PhD/Industry roles
Week 11–12: Career Mentoring, Documentation & Certification
In the final weeks, Heredity Biosciences provided:
- Resume building workshops
- Job interview tips and biotech placement guidance
- Certificate documentation with detailed modules and experiments completed
We were also introduced to real examples of previous interns now working in labs, enrolled in PhDs, or placed in diagnostics and pharma companies.
“The placement team and training mentors at Heredity don’t just train you—they empower you.”
Final Thoughts
My 3-month journey at Heredity Biosciences transformed my mindset from a passive student to a proactive researcher.
Whether you’re in B.Sc., M.Sc., or planning higher studies, this place is not just a training center—it’s a launchpad for your life sciences career.
