ICMR-NCAHT Project Research Scientist-II Recruitment 2026: 1 Vacancy

This role is ideally suited for researchers with a strong academic background in Biomedical sciences, Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, Physiology, Engineering, IT, or Computer Science, holding either a Post-Graduate/PhD or a four-year Graduate degree. Essential is a minimum of three years' experience in research, particularly with a focus on project management, R&D of assistive/medical technologies, and statistical methods. Candidates seeking to contribute to a specialized clinical validation study under a reputable national research body will find this opportunity particularly appealing.

Individuals lacking the mandatory three years of research experience or the specific educational qualifications outlined should not apply. Those seeking permanent government employment will find this temporary, project-based role unsuitable, as it does not offer long-term tenure or traditional government career progression. Additionally, candidates unwilling to commute for interviews without TA/DA reimbursement should consider this factor.

Working with an ICMR-NCAHT funded project offers significant prestige and an excellent opportunity to gain specialized research experience under the aegis of a leading national medical research institution. While it's a temporary position, it provides valuable exposure to clinical validation studies and cutting-edge medical technologies, which can serve as a strong foundation for a future career in research or academia. Long-term growth within the project itself is limited, but the experience is highly transferable and respected in the scientific community.
