National Institute of Malaria Research (NIMR) was established in 1977 as 'Malaria Research Centre', which was renamed as 'National Institute of Malaria Research' in November 2005. NIMR is one of the institutes of the Indian Council of Medical Research (an autonomous body under Department of Health Research, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Govt. of India). The primary task of the Institute is to find short term as well as long term solutions to the problems of malaria through basic, applied and operational field research. The Institute also plays a key role in man power resource development through trainings/workshops and transfer of technology.
Post : Junior Research Fellow, Senior Laboratory Assistant
Two project positions in the Laboratory of “Host-Parasite Interaction Biology Group” are to be filled up on purely ad-hoc, temporary and on contract basis, co-terminus with the project, to work in the following DBT and ICMR funded projects.
The project research work requires high-throughput tissue specific transcriptomic, bioinformatics and functional genomics studies. For the required position we are looking skilled manpower having special expertise to work with insect/mosquito tissues, RNA isolation, cDNA library construction, sequencing and handling of massive sequencing data. Apart from the basic lab work, the candidate is expected to devote maximum time for extensive bioinformatics work related to large scale cDNA annotation, gene identification, functional prediction, protein domain detection, docking and molecular modeling etc.
