AIIMS Bhubaneswar Project Fellow Recruitment 2026 - 01 Vacancy

This role is ideally suited for ambitious postgraduate candidates holding an M.Sc. in Physiology, Neurophysiology, Neurosciences, Biochemistry, Life Sciences, Biomedical Sciences, or Allied Sciences, particularly those with a valid GATE/NET-JRF score. The ideal applicant should possess hands-on experience in laboratory techniques such as western blot, ELISA, and RT-PCR, combined with strong communication skills in English, Hindi, and Odia, and a keen interest in temporary, project-based research within a leading medical institution.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or roles with a long-term commitment should not apply, as this is a purely temporary, contractual position for a specific project. Applicants who do not meet the minimum M.Sc. qualification with 55% marks, lack the specified laboratory skills, or are unable to communicate effectively in the required languages will find this role unsuitable. Those over the age of 30 (as on May 21, 2026, subject to government age relaxation rules) are also likely to be ineligible.

Working as a Project Fellow at AIIMS Bhubaneswar, a central government statutory body, offers significant prestige and exposure to high-level medical research. While the position is temporary and project-specific (initial 6 months, extendable up to 3 years), it provides invaluable experience in a cutting-edge research environment, which can be a strong foundation for future academic or research careers. The scope for long-term growth directly within this specific role is limited to the project's tenure, but the institutional reputation and research experience gained are considerable assets for career advancement.
