AIIMS Recruitment 2026: Project Research Scientist I (Non-Medical) Opportunities

The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi, is inviting applications for a high-impact research position under the Laboratory Oncology Unit at Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Institute Rotary Cancer Hospital (Dr. BRAIRCH).

The project, titled “Identification of BCR:ABL1 Independent Resistance Mechanisms from Multi-omics Data of Indian CML Patients and Finding Novel Prognostic Markers Using AI/ML Techniques,” focuses on using cutting-edge artificial intelligence and multi-omics data to tackle treatment resistance in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML).

Position Overview

Feature	Details
Post Name	Project Research Scientist I (Non-Medical)
Project Code	I-1948
Department	Laboratory Oncology, Dr. BRAIRCH, AIIMS Delhi
Tenure	3 Years
Salary	₹56,000 + HRA per month (As per ICMR Rules)

Eligibility Criteria

1. Essential Qualifications

First Class Post Graduate Degree (including integrated PG degrees).
OR Second Class Post Graduate Degree (including integrated PG degrees) with a Ph.D.

2. Desirable Experience

Ph.D. Degree in a relevant field.
Hands-on experience with molecular biology techniques (e.g., DNA/RNA extraction, PCR).
Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS): Experience in sample preparation for NGS.
Cloning: Practical experience in molecular cloning techniques.

Research Context: CML & Multi-omics

Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) is often characterized by the $BCR:ABL1$ fusion gene. However, many patients develop resistance through mechanisms independent of this gene. This project aims to identify those specific resistance pathways using multi-omics (genomics, transcriptomics, etc.) and AI/ML algorithms to improve patient prognosis.
