Work Culture & Environment

Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

Clinical research and community outreach ecosystem at an Institute of National Importance (AIIMS Jodhpur). The Project Research Scientist-III leads field operations for pulmonary rehabilitation in COPD and pneumoconiosis patients across Jodhpur district. Responsibilities include patient recruitment, community screening camps, pulmonary function testing logistics, coordinating patient transportation to AIIMS Jodhpur, intervention initiation, clinical data entry, statistical modeling, budget management, and reporting directly to Principal Investigator Dr. Pankaja Ravi Raghav. Working hours require both hospital coordination and extensive rural/semi-urban field visits.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Initial posting criteria, zone preferences, transfer liability.

Contractual tenure is initially for one year, extendable co-terminus with project phases and performance. Station of duty is AIIMS Jodhpur and designated field research clusters in Jodhpur district.

Career & Promotion Ladder

Promotion timeline, seniority ladder, pay grade scaling.

Because the post is project-funded under ICMR extramural grants, there is no permanent absorption into AIIMS faculty/staff cadres or standard promotional hierarchy. However, high-impact clinical trial and epidemiological leadership under ICMR at an AIIMS institute significantly elevates candidacy for regular ICMR Scientist posts, university faculty positions, and international research fellowships.
