Research Associate 1

This role is ideal for Ph.D. holders (or those who have submitted their thesis and are awaiting degree award) in Life Sciences. The most suitable candidates will possess strong practical experience in advanced cell and molecular biology techniques, including Omics-Proteomics, PTM-proteomics, NGS sequencing, Tissue microarrays, and ideally CRISPR Cas9-based genome editing. Individuals seeking temporary, project-based research opportunities within a prestigious academic institution will find this role highly rewarding.

Individuals without a Ph.D. (or thesis submission certificate), those seeking permanent government employment, or applicants who lack specialized research experience in the specified areas of cell and molecular biology should not apply. This is a temporary position for six months, and applicants must be aware there is no claim for absorption into IISER Tirupati.

IISER Tirupati, an Autonomous Institution of National Importance under the Ministry of Education, Govt. of India, offers an excellent research environment. This Research Associate-1 fellowship provides valuable postdoctoral experience in a cutting-edge project, 'Deciphering the sequence and structural signatures of the product specificity of Protein Arginine Methyl Transferases in health and disease'. This experience can significantly enhance a researcher's profile for future academic, industrial, or research-oriented career paths.
