Advanced Centre for Treatment Research and Education in Cancer Project Research Scientist Recruitment 2026 - 1 Post

Advanced Centre for Treatment Research and Education in Cancer (ACTREC), a Tata Memorial Centre unit under the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India, has issued Advt. No. ACTREC/Advt-108/2026 dated 02 June 2026. The post is for the project titled ICMR Centre for Advanced Research (CAR) Phase I clinical trials Networks. This is a 6-month project appointment, and it can be extended based on project need and performance.

The project title points to Phase I clinical trials networks, so the role is best matched to candidates who understand clinical research workflows, study files and patient-study coordination. ACTREC has mentioned oncology clinical trials experience as desirable, which makes cancer trial exposure a strong advantage. Since this is a walk-in post, prepare your project and trial experience in a short, clear CV before reaching the venue.

Who Can Apply?

Mandatory Qualification

• Post-Graduation Degree in Clinical Research or Pharmacy is required.
• Integrated PG degrees in the same areas are also accepted.
• The role is marked as Project Research Scientist - I (NM), so it is a non-medical research role.

Desirable Experience

• Oncology clinical trials experience for at least 2 years is desirable.
• Experience with clinical trial documentation, patient-study coordination, and research compliance will help in this role.

You can attend with a Clinical Research PG, Pharmacy PG, or an integrated PG degree in these areas. The mandatory qualification is separate from the desirable experience, so fresh postgraduates may check the notice, but candidates with 2 years of oncology trial work will have a clearer fit for the project. Keep your experience certificates ready if you are claiming clinical trial exposure.

Age Limit

• Maximum age: 35 years.
• The notification does not mention a separate age-relaxation table for this walk-in post.

Salary

• Consolidated monthly salary: Rs. 72,800 per month.
• The salary is calculated as Rs. 56,000 plus 30% HRA.
• The initial duration is 6 months, and the post is extendable.

The salary combines Rs. 56,000 basic project pay with 30% HRA, making the monthly total Rs. 72,800. Since the appointment is for 6 months and extendable, you should treat it as a project-based research role rather than a permanent post. The extension will depend on project requirements and ACTREC's decision.

Application Fee

• No application fee is mentioned in the walk-in notification.
• You need to carry your CV, certificates, photo and ID proof to the venue.
