ACTREC Junior Research Fellow Recruitment 2026 (1 Post)

This role is ideal for highly motivated Master's graduates in Biochemistry, Biotechnology, or Life Sciences with a strong academic record (60% marks minimum) and proven laboratory experience. Candidates with expertise in cell-based assays, protein purification, molecular biology, mammalian cell culture, and biophysical analysis, eager for project-based work, will find this opportunity suitable. The position offers a chance to contribute to advanced research at a prestigious institution.

Individuals with a one-year M.Sc. degree or those awaiting results should not apply. This is a purely project-based position with an initial duration of only three months, which might not suit candidates seeking long-term or permanent employment directly. Those without relevant practical experience in molecular biology and cell-based assays will likely find this role challenging.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at ACTREC, part of the Tata Memorial Centre and a grant-in-aid institution under the Department of Atomic Energy, offers significant prestige and exposure to cutting-edge cancer research. While the current tenure is short (3 months), it provides an excellent foundation for a research career, enhances CV value, and opens doors for future opportunities in academia or industry, especially within the life sciences and oncology sectors.
