Soham Naik is a computational biologist and researcher from Goa, India, whose work brings together biology, computation, biotechnology, and healthcare. Raised in Goa, he holds an M.Sc. in Marine Biotechnology from Goa University and previously worked as a Project Associate-I at the CSIR–National Institute of Oceanography. His research experience includes marine metagenomics, microbial genome reconstruction, structural bioinformatics, and intrinsically disordered proteins. Across these areas, Naik focuses on understanding complex biological systems and translating scientific insights into useful tools and applications.

His professional profile also reflects an interest in building, from early science and electronics projects to bioinformatics pipelines and research tools. He shares his perspectives through personal writing, including an essay about how childhood hospital visits shaped his interest in biology. His featured publication examines fucoidan and mannitol biosynthetic pathways in the brown seaweed Padina tetrastromatica using draft genome and transcriptome analysis. Naik is currently exploring opportunities in computational biology, bioinformatics, healthcare technology, research and entrepreneurship fellowships, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
