Jr. Research Fellow

This role is ideal for highly motivated postgraduate degree holders in Chemistry or Life Science disciplines who possess a strong academic record (min. 60% marks or 7/10 CGPA) and have qualified for national-level fellowships like NET, GATE (score > 500), or DBT JRF (Category II). Candidates with desirable expertise in protein expression and peptide synthesis/analysis will be particularly well-suited. This is an excellent opportunity for individuals seeking project-based research experience at a premier institution.

Candidates who do not possess a relevant postgraduate degree, or lack the mandatory NET/GATE/DBT JRF qualification (unless they are CFTI graduates with a CGPA > 8.0), should not apply. Those looking for permanent government employment will find this contractual project-based role unsuitable. With only one vacancy, competition will be extremely high.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at IIT Delhi offers significant prestige and a valuable opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in antifungal peptide formulations. While the role is contractual and project-specific, it provides an invaluable experience in a world-renowned academic environment, which can significantly boost future career prospects in academia, research, or industry.
