ICGEB SRF/JRF (Bioinformatics) Positions Recruitment 2026

This role is ideally suited for individuals holding an M.Sc. or M.Tech. in Bioinformatics, especially those with strong computational and biological data analysis skills. Candidates who have qualified for NET/GATE or an equivalent examination are preferred. For the SRF position, a minimum of two years of relevant experience is mandatory. This is an excellent opportunity for researchers passionate about multi-omics analysis, statistical modeling, machine learning, geospatial analysis, and remote sensing in the context of vector-borne diseases.

Candidates who do not possess the essential postgraduate qualification in Bioinformatics or lack strong computational and data analysis skills should not apply. Those seeking permanent government employment might find the initial one-year contractual tenure (extendable) to be a dealbreaker. Applicants for the SRF position without the required two years of experience will not be suitable.

Working at the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB), an esteemed international organization, offers significant prestige and exposure. This position in the Vector Borne Disease Group provides an opportunity for impactful research in a critical public health area. The role promises strong potential for specialized skill development in cutting-edge bioinformatics and offers valuable experience for a career in international research and biotechnology, with prospects for extension based on performance.
