ACTREC Research Associate Advt 119 Recruitment 2026 - 1 Post

Advanced Centre for Treatment, Research and Education in Cancer (ACTREC), under Tata Memorial Centre and the Department of Atomic Energy, has released ACTREC/ADVT-119/2026 for a project-based Research Associate post. The project title is Inter laboratory comparison program for immunophenotyping by flow cytometry (ILCP). This post is for six months and extension depends on satisfactory work progress.

Project fit matters: This notice is for applicants who can support clinical research documentation and data work connected with the ILCP project. ACTREC has made the PG Diploma in Clinical Research mandatory for this advertisement, so this notice is different from the other Research Associate notice on the same interview date. Read the advertisement number carefully before attending.

Who Can Apply?

• Mandatory Qualification: Postgraduate Degree in Life Sciences, Biotechnology, Microbiology, Biostatistics, or equivalent with PG Diploma in Clinical Research.
• Important Note: The notice says a one-year M.Sc. degree will not be considered.
• Desirable Experience: Six months in a clinical trial, including data management and documentation.
• Work Location: ACTREC, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai.

Before attending: Check that your CV clearly shows the mandatory postgraduate degree, PG Diploma in Clinical Research, and any clinical trial data-management experience. Since the notice asks for both original and Xerox copies of certificates, carry separate document sets so the verification step does not delay your interview.

What to highlight in your CV: Mention your postgraduate subject, PG Diploma in Clinical Research, clinical trial exposure, data management work, and documentation duties. The notice mentions 6 months in a clinical trial as desirable experience, including data management and documentation, so include the dates and nature of your clinical research work clearly.

Salary

• Consolidated salary: Rs. 33,000 per month.
• The notice does not mention separate allowances, so treat the pay as a consolidated project salary.
• Duration is six months and may be extended if the work progress is satisfactory.

Duration and extension: The first appointment period is six months. ACTREC has stated that work progress will be monitored, and any extension after six months will depend on satisfactory progress. This means your clinical research documentation, data handling, and project discipline matter throughout the assignment, not only during the interview.

Be ready to explain how you have managed clinical trial records, handled documentation, checked data, or supported study teams. The notice does not mention a written test, so the interview and documents are the key parts of the process.
