Dr. Rajendra Prasad Centre for Ophthalmic Sciences AIIMS Recruitment 2026: 01 Project Research Scientist-I Vacancy

This role is ideal for highly motivated individuals holding an M.Sc in Biotechnology, Biosciences, or Biochemistry, who are keen to contribute to a specific ICMR-funded research project. Candidates with desirable experience in vision science research and a publication record would be highly preferred. It suits those looking for a time-bound contractual research position in a prestigious medical institution.

This position is not suitable for candidates without the essential M.Sc qualification or those seeking permanent employment. Individuals unwilling to work on a specific research project with a fixed tenure of two years should not apply. It's also not for those looking for a general research role outside ophthalmology or ocular biology.

Working at AIIMS, a premier medical institution in India, offers significant prestige and exposure to high-level research. While this is a contractual, project-specific role with a two-year tenure, it provides valuable experience for a career in medical research, especially within ophthalmology. Future growth could involve transitioning to other research projects or permanent roles within similar institutions, leveraging the AIIMS experience.
