IISER Pune Research Associate-I/II Recruitment 2026: 1 Vacancy

This role is ideally suited for highly qualified individuals holding a Ph.D. in Engineering, Mathematics, Science, or related fields, particularly those with a strong research track record including SCI journal publications. Candidates with advanced expertise in data science, deep learning, and computer vision, especially with at least one year of relevant research experience, will be highly preferred. It's perfect for researchers seeking a temporary, project-based opportunity within a prestigious academic setting.

Individuals without a Ph.D. in the specified fields or those lacking demonstrable research experience should not apply. The position is purely temporary and contractual, making it unsuitable for candidates seeking permanent government employment or long-term job security. Given the specialized nature of the project ('Assessment of Bone Age using Artificial Intelligence'), candidates without relevant skills in AI/data science or a strong publication record will find it extremely competitive.

IISER Pune is an Institute of National Importance, renowned for its excellence in basic science research and education. Securing a Research Associate position here offers significant prestige and invaluable experience on a cutting-edge project. While the role is temporary, it provides an exceptional platform for professional development, networking with leading academics, and enhancing one's CV for future research, academic, or industry positions in AI and biomedical fields.
