Work Culture & Environment

Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

The Scientific Coordinator works on a clinical trial research project in the Department of Neurology / Clinical Research Facility at Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS), Punjagutta, Hyderabad. The research project focuses on the 'Efficacy and Safety of Pozelimab and Cemdisiran Combination Therapy and Cemdisiran Monotherapy in Patients with Symptomatic Generalized Myasthenia Gravis'. Daily operational duties require high-level patient interaction: conducting neuropsychological assessments for adult and pediatric cohorts, providing structured psychoeducation and disease counseling to patients facing chronic neuromuscular disability, monitoring clinical trial protocols in accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, and preparing high-standard scientific documentation, clinical trial progress reports, and research papers.

Posting & Transfer Policy

The engagement is purely temporary on a contract basis for an initial tenure of 1 year. The position is stationed at the NIMS campus in Punjagutta, Hyderabad, Telangana. Working hours conform to institutional research and hospital OPD/IPD trial schedules.

Career & Promotion Ladder

As a sponsored clinical trial project appointment, the post carries no provision, seniority, or right to claim regularization or permanent absorption in the regular establishment of NIMS.
