Project Research Scientist II Medical

This role is ideally suited for medical or allied health professionals (MBBS/BAMS/BDS) with at least three years of post-qualification experience, or those holding relevant postgraduate degrees (MD/MVSc/MDS/MPH) or a PhD. Candidates should have a keen interest in oncology research, particularly in integrative medicine and Ayurveda-related clinical trials. Experience in CTRI registered trials, cancer management, and various research methodologies would be a significant advantage.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment will find this position unsuitable, as it is purely temporary and project-specific (initially for 11 months, renewable based on performance and funds). Those without the specified medical/dental/Ayurveda degrees or relevant experience, or those not prepared for a walk-in interview process, should not apply. Lack of interest in research related to integrative oncology and Ayurveda would also be a mismatch.

Working at AIIMS Nagpur, a prestigious national institute, offers an excellent opportunity to gain valuable experience in a cutting-edge, ICMR-AYUSH funded oncology research project. While the role is contractual, it provides exposure to advanced research methodologies and clinical trials, which can significantly enhance a researcher's profile. Long-term career progression would likely involve seeking subsequent project roles or transitioning to permanent positions in academia or research institutions, leveraging the experience gained at AIIMS.
