THSTI BRIC Project Associate-II Recruitment 2026: 1 Vacancy

This role is ideally suited for highly motivated postgraduate candidates holding an M.Tech., M.Pharm., or a Master's degree in Life Sciences, coupled with at least two years of post-qualification research experience. Expertise in multi-omics, microbiology, or environmental biology, particularly with hands-on experience in microbial culture or environmental sample processing, is crucial. It offers a valuable opportunity for individuals seeking short-term research engagement within a government-affiliated research institute.

Candidates lacking the specified two years of post-qualification research experience or the required specialized background in microbiology/environmental biology should not apply. Those seeking permanent government employment will find this contractual, project-based position unsuitable, as it explicitly states no claim for regularization. Individuals unwilling to travel for a walk-in interview (or submit virtual application by the deadline) should also reconsider.

As an institute under the Biotechnology Research and Innovation Council, Government of India, THSTI offers a reputable platform for scientific research. While this is a contractual position, it provides an opportunity to contribute to significant projects like SARS-CoV-2 wastewater surveillance and antimicrobial resistance studies. Such experience from a government-backed research institution can significantly enhance a researcher's profile and open doors for future career advancements in national and international research organizations.
