What We Do

Specialized computational services spanning molecular, genomic, and systems scales. Built for research groups and industry teams who need rigorous, reproducible, publication-ready outputs.

Research & Computational Services

Molecular Dynamics & AI-Driven Design

From protein–ligand binding to de novo molecular design. We run all-atom and coarse-grained simulations, free energy calculations, and enhanced sampling — combined with AlphaFold, RFdiffusion, and generative AI tools for structure prediction, design, and validation. Every result is reproducible and built for publication.

(Meta)genomics & Multi-Omics

Comprehensive multi-omics services including 16S/ITS amplicon profiling, whole-genome shotgun sequencing, (meta)transcriptomics, (meta)proteomics, and metabolomics. Core capabilities include genome assembly, MAG reconstruction, taxonomic and functional annotation, metabolic pathway reconstruction, and cross-omics network analysis. Data analyzed individually or integrated for systems-level biological interpretation.

Academic & Writing Support

Scientific Writing & Grant Support

Support for publication and funding. We help with results interpretation, data visualization, and manuscript preparation for peer-reviewed journals. We also assist with grant proposals — specific aims, computational methods sections, and proposal strategy for national and international funding bodies.

Training & Workshops

Hands-on training in bioinformatics, metagenomics analysis, R programming, and molecular simulation workflows. Designed for research groups, graduate students, and professionals from non-computational backgrounds. Available as one-day workshops or structured multi-session courses, delivered remotely or on-site.

Representative Research and Methodology

Selected projects from Dr. Bharat Manna's collaborative academic research, demonstrating the analytical expertise that underpins Manna Omics Solutions.

Your Treatment Plant May Be Building the Resistance It's Meant to Remove

The Challenge: Conventional activated sludge processes are designed to reduce biological hazards. However, there is a critical unknown: is the treatment environment itself, specifically high-intensity aeration, actively generating the resistant bacteria that eventually dissipate into receiving water bodies?

The Solution: Using shotgun metagenomics and SWATH-metaproteomics across full-scale treatment plants, this Water Research (2025) study proved that aeration-induced ROS drives the de novo emergence of ~22% of the enriched resistome within the system. Crucially, the plant operation, not the incoming wastewater, determines up to 75% of the antibiotic resistance genes discharged into the environment.

Your Biocatalyst Is Being Sabotaged by Its Own Product

The Challenge: Beta-glucosidases are the final bottleneck in lignocellulosic biofuel production, yet they are feedback-inhibited by the very glucose they produce. The molecular mechanism behind this remained unknown.

The Solution: Atomistic MD simulations, protein structure network analysis, and molecular docking identified six secondary glucose binding sites as the structural basis of uncompetitive inhibition, providing actionable targets for rational enzyme engineering. This ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering (2021) study delivers the first molecular-level roadmap for glucose-tolerant biocatalyst design.

Is Your Next Antiviral Already on the Shelf?

The Challenge: Drug development for emerging pathogens like SARS-CoV-2 is too slow. By the time a new drug clears trials, the window has passed.

The Solution: Combining virtual screening of 1918 FDA-approved drugs with transcriptomic signature reversal analysis, Indomethacin was identified and validated in-vitro at ICMR-NIV Pune with an IC50 of 12 μM. This Computers in Biology and Medicine (2022) study shows how computational repurposing pipelines can cut discovery timelines dramatically, turning existing drug libraries into actionable antiviral candidates before the next outbreak peaks.

Dr. Bharat Manna

Founder & Principal Scientist

Dr. Bharat Manna is a computational biologist with a Ph.D. from IIT Kharagpur and postdoctoral training at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. His research sits at the intersection of oxidative stress, microbial ecology, and antimicrobial resistance — an area of growing relevance to global One Health challenges.

His expertise spans two scales: atomistic molecular dynamics simulations of protein systems, and genome-resolved multi-omics analysis of complex environmental microbiomes. This dual fluency — from force fields to metagenomes — is the foundation on which Manna Omics Solutions was built.

With 28+ peer-reviewed publications in Water Research, ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, and Journal of Physical Chemistry B, and research presented across four continents, Dr. Manna brings scientific depth and international perspective to every engagement.

Gold Medalist, M.Tech Bioinformatics. Winner, SAMHAR-COVID19 Hackathon (C-DAC, DST, NVIDIA).
