Research Associate

This role is ideally suited for highly qualified researchers holding a Ph.D. in Science/Engineering or an M.D./M.S. in medicine, with a demonstrated research interest in Neuroscience. Candidates must possess a good academic record, evidenced by at least one first-author publication from their Ph.D. work. Those with specific experience in advanced laboratory techniques such as animal handling, neuronal culture, confocal microscopy, and genetic manipulation will find this opportunity particularly fitting. It's best for individuals seeking project-based research experience in a leading neuroscience institution.

Individuals without the required Ph.D. or M.D./M.S. degree, or those lacking a strong first-author publication record from their doctoral studies, should not apply. Furthermore, candidates seeking permanent employment or a role not focused on specific, time-bound research projects may find this position unsuitable due to its contractual and project-linked tenure.

The National Brain Research Centre (NBRC) is a prestigious DBT organization and a Deemed University, offering a robust platform for cutting-edge neuroscience research. While the tenure is project-limited (initially one year, extendable up to two more), it provides invaluable research experience and exposure in a high-impact scientific domain, enhancing long-term career prospects in academic or research fields.
