Regional Ayurveda Research Institute (RARI) Senior Research Fellow (Botany) Recruitment 2026: 01 Vacancy

This role is ideally suited for candidates holding an M.Sc. in Botany with a minimum of two years of dedicated research experience. Preference will be given to individuals with prior involvement in research projects funded by government bodies like AYUSH, ICMR, CSIR, or DST, and those possessing skills in scientific documentation, ethnobotanical surveys, and computer applications. The position is best for those seeking contractual research opportunities within a government autonomous institution and who are willing to relocate to Jammu or commute for the walk-in interview.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this position is purely contractual and co-terminus with the project duration. Candidates lacking the essential two years of research experience in Botany, or those who are unable to attend the mandatory walk-in interview with original documents in Jammu on the specified date, will not be considered.

Working as a Senior Research Fellow at the Regional Ayurveda Research Institute, an institution under the Ministry of AYUSH, Government of India, offers significant prestige and valuable experience in Ayurvedic research. This role provides an excellent opportunity to contribute to a critical IMR project on ethnobotany in the Jammu & Kashmir region, enhancing research credentials and professional networks within the central government's health and wellness sector, despite its contractual nature.
