0 Research Opportunities at CSIR Labs 2012

Research Opportunities at CSIR Labs for Young Scientists as Senior Research Associates under Scientists’ Pool Scheme
in the area of HEALTHCARE, DRUGS & PHARMACEUTICALS

The Senior Research Associateship (SRAship) is primarily meant to provide temporary placement to highly qualified Indian scientists, engineers, technologists, and medical personnel returning from foreign countries who are not holding any employment in India. Persons, who have not been abroad and possess outstanding academic record and have not been able to secure regular employment, are also eligible for selection.
The other eligibility criteria such as minimum academic score, publications etc, required for applying for Senior Research Associateship are mentioned In the information booklet-cum-application proforma which may be downloadable from Human Resource Development Group (CSIR) web site (www.csirhrdg.res.in).
The programmes covered under this sector include a broad-spectrum of diverse areas. The priorities relating to diseases/health risks cover a mission programme on Asthma and programmes principally concerned with reproductive health (antifertility agents), tropical infections (antimalarials, antitubercular, antimicrobial agents), ageing-related disorders (antiosteoporotic, antidementia, anti-stress, antidiabetic, antidyslipidemic agents), environmental and industrial health hazards, cataract, tumors and cancers. The other programmes relate to: antifilarials, hepatoprotectives, antiulcer, anti-inflamatory, antihypertensives, anti-arthritic, biocompatible materials etc. CSIR has also geared itself in recent advances in biology such as genome sequencing of man and opened up unlimited opportunities in medicine.
