BRIC-National Institute of Immunology Recruitment 2026: 2 Project Scientist-I/II Contractual Vacancies

This contractual role is ideal for highly qualified individuals holding a PhD or Master's Degree in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Systems Biology, Biophysics, or related interdisciplinary fields, who possess at least three years of dedicated R&D experience in academic or industrial settings. Candidates with expertise in protein structure modelling, machine learning for biomedical applications, high-performance computing, and strong collaborative communication skills will find this opportunity particularly fitting for advancing their research profile in a specialized domain.

Individuals lacking the specified advanced degrees (PhD or Master's) or without the mandatory three years of research and development experience should not apply. As these are short-term (6 months) contractual positions under a specific project, candidates seeking permanent employment or long-term career stability within the institute may find this role unsuitable.

The BRIC-National Institute of Immunology, an autonomous institution under the Department of Biotechnology, Government of India, offers a prestigious research environment. While the positions are contractual, they provide an excellent opportunity to contribute to a significant international initiative ('GANANA-INDIA EU Initiative'). This experience offers valuable exposure to cutting-edge research in immunology and computational biology, enhancing a researcher's expertise and network within the scientific community.
