Doctoral Fellow

This role is ideal for PhD holders in Biotechnology, Microbiology, or Biological Sciences with proven research experience in cloning, expression, protein purification, and crystallization. Candidates with a strong publication record (SCI journal) and desirable experience in bacterial isolation, biodegradation, and metagenomic studies will be highly preferred. It's an excellent opportunity for researchers looking for project-based experience within a premier institution.

Candidates without a PhD in the specified disciplines or lacking hands-on experience in cloning, expression, protein purification, and crystallization should not apply. Those seeking permanent government employment will find this contractual, one-year project position unsuitable. Individuals requiring TA/DA for interviews will also be disappointed as it is not admissible.

Working at IIT Roorkee, a globally recognized Institute of National Importance, offers significant academic and research prestige. This project position provides valuable experience in cutting-edge research on plastic biodegradation, enhancing one's research portfolio and opening avenues for future academic or industrial roles, potentially even PhD admission. The fixed-term nature, however, means limited long-term job security within this specific role.
