TATA MEMORIAL CENTRE ACTREC Recruitment 2026: 10 Project Research Scientist & Technical Support Vacancies

This opportunity is ideal for seasoned researchers and technical professionals with strong backgrounds in Genetics, Bioinformatics, Engineering, IT, or Computer Science. Candidates holding a PhD or MSc with significant post-qualification experience (minimum 3 years) in genomic analysis, NGS wet lab techniques, bioinformatics pipeline development, genetic counselling, or clinical trial coordination are highly suitable. The roles are project-based, requiring individuals who are adaptable and committed to contributing to cutting-edge paediatric cancer genetics research within a prestigious central government-aided institution.

Individuals without the specified minimum 3 years of relevant post-qualification experience should not apply. Those seeking permanent government employment may find these project-based, contractual roles unsuitable. Candidates whose age exceeds 40 years for Project Research Scientist II or 35 years for Project Technical Support-III, as on the application deadline, are ineligible.

Joining Tata Memorial Centre's ACTREC, a premier institution under the Department of Atomic Energy, offers significant prestige and a platform to contribute to globally impactful cancer research. While the roles are contractual and project-specific, the experience gained will be invaluable, enhancing career prospects in research, academia, and specialized healthcare sectors, both nationally and internationally. The scope involves working on a multi-centric ICMR project with direct societal impact.
