Best-Fit Profile
This role is ideally suited for academic professionals with strong qualifications (M.Sc./Ph.D. in Biotechnology, Genetics, Microbiology, Immunology, or medical degrees like MBBS/BDS/MD/DNB) who are eager to contribute to significant medical research. Candidates with prior research experience, especially involving children, and those who have qualified national research fellowship examinations (e.g., CSIR-UGC NET, ICMR-JRF, DBT-INSPIRE) will be highly preferred.
Important Considerations

Working on an ICMR-funded project at a reputable institution like GMCH-32, Chandigarh, offers valuable experience in a central government-backed research environment. This position provides an excellent opportunity to contribute to a critical medical trial ('SPLID TRIAL') and enhance one's research profile, potentially opening doors for future academic or research roles despite its contractual nature.
