It is therefore with great delight I am writing this recommendation letter for him, knowing his true potential. Santosh, was involved in projects that studied the zoonotic transmission of soil transmitted helminths in India. In his tenure as a Ph. D. student, he developed and standardized molecular techniques to identify STH infections and engaged efficiently with the theoretical basis of the study. He was quick to grasp the techniques and procedures involving epidemiological and molecular aspects of the study leading to publications in peer reviewed journals. His technical expertise and scientific knowledge had a great influence in training and supervising naive researchers in developing efficient skills in the field of research. His calm and patient approach in always helping everyone in the laboratory is worth mentioning. He demonstrated an ability to work in an organized and meticulous manner, cooperating well with researchers in a busy laboratory setting, and showed a firm understanding of relevant molecular principles when interpreting the data he produced. To conclude, Santosh is a productive goal oriented independent researcher, hardworking and conscientious member of the team with excellent communication skills and it was indeed a pleasure to work with.
