Walk in interview for Research Assistant, Senior Research Fellow in Regional Medical Researcch Centre for Tribals - ICMR

The Council's Regional Medical Research Centre for Tribals started functioning in 1984, at Jabalpur, from three rooms in Medical College with a handful of staff. The centre continued functioning from Medical college till 1990 to address mainly to the study of the health and nutritional problems of the tribal populations, including nutritional disorders, common communicable diseases, environmental health problems, etc. The State Health has utilized the expertise of the scientists in planning, monitoring and evaluation of tribal health and other developmental programs in tribal areas of Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh and also in training health functionaries of these states. This Centre is also attempting simultaneously to estimate the magnitude of health problems posed by other common diseases such as malaria, tuberculosis, leprosy, diarrhoea, filariasis, venereal diseases, poliomyelitis, measles, etc. Further, the Centre also studies the blood groups, abnormal haemoglobins and other genetic health problems to stratify areas and to suggest control measures including interventions. Socio-economic, demographic and cultural profile of the tribal population gives an insight about how they play an important role in complicating and enhancing the magnitude of the problem. The centre was shifted to the main building of RMRCT in April 2002 and now establishing laboratories for Molecular Genetics, Immunology, Microbiology and Clinical Epidemiology in full swing.
