NEHU DHR Recruitment 2026: 2 Junior Research Fellow & Multi-Tasking Staff Vacancies

This opportunity is ideal for postgraduates in specified engineering/computer science disciplines (JRF) with strong academic credentials like NET/GATE qualification, or any graduate/diploma holder (MTS), who are seeking temporary, project-based research exposure. Candidates must be interested in contributing to a significant government-funded research project focused on deep learning-based medical image analysis for lumbar spine disorders. It's suitable for individuals looking to gain valuable experience in a central university setting.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or positions with a high volume of vacancies should not apply, as these are temporary, project-specific roles. Those who do not meet the stringent academic qualifications for the JRF post (including the national eligibility test criteria) or the basic graduate/diploma requirement for MTS will not be suitable. This is not for those expecting long-term career progression directly within this project.

As a project funded by the Department of Health Research (DHR) under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, and hosted by North-Eastern Hill University (NEHU), a Central University, this role offers exposure to a prestigious government research initiative. While the positions are co-terminus with the project, the experience gained in a specialized field like medical image analysis using deep learning, within a government-backed framework, can significantly enhance one's resume for future research or academic roles.
