Research Assistant

This role is ideal for fresh science graduates (B.Sc.) seeking an entry-level contractual research position in a prestigious cancer research institution. Candidates with a Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology (MLT) and/or prior experience in medical diagnostic laboratories will have an advantage. It suits individuals looking for short-term (six months, extendable) exposure to research under the Government of India.

Candidates aspiring for permanent government employment, long-term career stability within a single role, or a high initial salary should not consider this position. Individuals without a Graduate degree in Science (B.Sc.) are not eligible to apply. Those unwilling to work on a contractual basis with a fixed monthly consolidated pay will find this role unsuitable.

Working at ACTREC, part of the Tata Memorial Centre and a grant-in-aid institution of the Department of Atomic Energy, offers significant prestige and a valuable opportunity to contribute to advanced cancer research. While the role itself is contractual and for a limited duration, it provides excellent experience that can serve as a stepping stone for future career progression in research or related fields.
