Project Assistant

This role is ideal for junior research professionals holding an M.Sc. in Life Science (with a minimum of 55% marks), particularly those with prior research experience in Molecular Biology and who are qualified in national eligibility tests like NET or GATE. It suits individuals seeking temporary, project-based work in a government-funded cancer research environment and aiming to gain valuable research experience.

Candidates without an M.Sc. in Life Science or those exceeding 28 years of age (without applicable government relaxations) should not apply. Individuals primarily seeking permanent government employment or roles with comprehensive benefits such as Provident Fund, Pension Scheme, or Medical claims will find this contractual position unsuitable.

Chittaranjan National Cancer Institute (CNCI) is a respected autonomous body under the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, offering a credible platform for cancer research. While this specific role is temporary and project-based, it provides valuable experience in a prestigious national institute, significantly enhancing future career prospects in research, particularly for those aspiring for further academic pursuits like PhDs or long-term research positions.
