Dr. Reddy’s Institute of Life Sciences Hiring Research Chemist, Research Associate, Scientist

Dr. Reddy’s Institute of Life Sciences (DRILS) is a non-profit Research Institute with a mission to be the preferred research partner to the pharma and life sciences industry. DRILS was conceived as an autonomous entity as a result of partnership between the State Government, a private industry and the University of Hyderabad. The facilities inaugurated in 2007 are spread over an area of 130,000 square feet (12,000 square meters) within the University of Hyderabad campus. The Institute has been set up on a public-private partnership model by Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, the Government of Telangana, and the University of Hyderabad, and is governed by a Board of Directors comprising eminent scientists and visionaries. The remarkable vision and impetus of late Dr. Kallam Anji Reddy formed the foundation of the Institute. Research activities at the Institute were launched in 2007.
