Senior Research Fellow SRF

This role is ideal for dedicated postgraduates or Ph.D. holders in Genetics, Plant Breeding, or Biotechnology with a strong academic background. Candidates possessing UGC/CSIR/ICAR NET qualification or a Ph.D. are particularly well-suited. Individuals with practical experience in molecular markers and bioinformatics skills will have a significant advantage, eager to contribute to cutting-edge agricultural research in a project-based, contractual setting.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this is a purely temporary and contractual position tied to specific projects. Candidates without the specified Master's degree (or NET/Ph.D. for 3-year bachelor's holders) in the relevant disciplines will not meet the essential qualifications. Those uncomfortable with online interview processes or unable to comply with the strict application deadline should also refrain from applying.

Working at ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI), a premier national institution for agricultural research, offers substantial prestige and exposure within the scientific community. While the position is contractual and project-bound, it provides invaluable experience in high-impact research, enhancing future career prospects in academia, research, or related industries. This role serves as an excellent stepping stone for further scientific contributions.
