Project Research Scientist & Research Associate

This role is ideally suited for medical or dental graduates (MBBS/BDS) with a minimum of three years of post-qualification research experience, especially those holding postgraduate degrees like MPH, MPT, or Ph.D. Candidates with a strong publication record in Science Citation Indexed (SCI) journals and a background in clinical research are highly encouraged to apply for these contractual research positions at a prestigious institution like AIIMS.

Individuals without the mandatory medical/dental degrees or relevant postgraduate qualifications, or those lacking the required three years of experience, should not apply. The positions are purely contractual, so candidates seeking permanent government employment will find these roles unsuitable. The low number of vacancies (3) also suggests intense competition.

Working at AIIMS, New Delhi, a premier medical institution, offers unparalleled prestige and exposure in the field of medical research. Although contractual, these roles provide valuable, high-impact research experience and networking opportunities, which can significantly boost a candidate's profile for future academic or research positions. The work contributes to a project funded by AIIMS itself, indicating internal significance.
