Junior Research Fellow

This role is ideal for highly motivated postgraduate candidates with an MSc or equivalent in Life Sciences, Immunology, Biotechnology, Biochemistry, or Molecular Biology. Preference is given to those who have qualified for national-level eligibility tests like CSIR-UGC-NET or GATE. Candidates with practical hands-on experience in molecular biology, flow cytometry, next-generation sequencing, and human cell culture, who are eager to work in a collaborative, cutting-edge research environment focused on idiopathic inflammatory myositis, will find this position highly suitable. Individuals interested in pursuing a PhD at AIIMS Bilaspur are also encouraged to apply due to the desirable qualification mentioned.

Candidates without a postgraduate qualification in the specified scientific disciplines, or those who have not qualified through recognized national eligibility tests (unless an equivalent fellowship exam tenable at AIIMS Bilaspur for PhD enrolment is cleared), should not apply. Individuals lacking hands-on laboratory experience in the mentioned techniques or those seeking a permanent government position should also consider other options, as this is a contractual research project role.

Working at AIIMS Bilaspur, a leading national institute, offers significant prestige and exposure to advanced research. While initially a one-year contractual project position, it provides valuable experience in cutting-edge immunology and molecular biology, potentially leading to future academic or research careers. The project, funded by ANRF, is academically rigorous and offers opportunities for publication and skill development essential for a long-term research career.
