Junior Research Fellow

This role is ideal for highly motivated M.Sc. graduates in Life Sciences with an exceptional academic record (80% marks or equivalent CGPA) who are keen on pursuing research in 'DNA damage repair and cancer'. Candidates seeking a short-term, project-based opportunity within a prestigious government-aided cancer research institution will find this role suitable.

Individuals whose M.Sc. degree was obtained via a one-year course are explicitly not eligible. Those looking for a permanent position or a role outside of translational research in cancer should not apply. Candidates uncomfortable with a walk-in interview process without prior application may also find this unsuitable.

The Tata Memorial Centre (TMC) is a highly respected institution under the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India, offering significant prestige in cancer research and treatment. While this is a contractual project role, it provides valuable exposure and experience within a leading research environment, enhancing future career prospects in academia or industry. Long-term growth beyond the initial contract is dependent on project extension and future opportunities within TMC or related institutions.
