ACTREC Junior Research Fellow Recruitment 2026 (1 Post)

This role is ideal for M.Sc. graduates in Life Sciences, Microbiology, or Biotechnology who have qualified National Level Exams and possess 1-2 years of hands-on experience in cancer biology, cell culture, molecular biology, and animal handling. Individuals keen on project-based research in a leading cancer institute will find this opportunity suitable for specialized skill development and contributing to significant research.

Candidates lacking 1-2 years of relevant work experience or an M.Sc. degree from a recognized university (especially those with 1-year M.Sc. courses) should not apply. Those without National Level Exam qualifications or seeking a permanent government position may find the contractual nature and specific research focus (Cisplatin sensitivity, ovarian cancer) unsuitable.

The Tata Memorial Centre - ACTREC is a premier institution under the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India, offering high prestige in cancer research. This project-based Junior Research Fellow role provides an excellent platform for aspiring researchers to gain specialized experience and contribute to a DBT-funded project, potentially leading to future academic or research opportunities within a renowned institution. While the role is contractual, the exposure and research environment are invaluable for career advancement in biomedical sciences.
