ACTREC Scientific Officer Bioinformatics Recruitment 2026: Overview
Advanced Centre for Treatment, Research and Education in Cancer (ACTREC) is recruiting a Scientific Officer in Bioinformatics for its Department of Hematopathology and Cytogenetics at Kharghar, Navi Mumbai. ACTREC is part of Tata Memorial Centre and is a grant-in-aid institute under the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India. The notice offers a contract engagement with a choice of walk-in or Zoom interview, so you can use the route appropriate to your circumstances.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Initial tenure: The appointment is for one year at the start. You should plan around that stated term when considering the offer.
- Extension: ACTREC may extend the engagement according to the Centre's requirements. The notice makes extension conditional on that requirement.
- Interview choice: The in-person and remote options belong to the same recruitment notice. The remote route needs an advance email request, so simply planning to join online is not a substitute for contacting the recruitment cell.
Application Submission Notes
For the walk-in, report to Recruitment Cell, Room No. PS-330, Paymaster Shodhika, ACTREC, Sector-22, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai 410210. The reporting window is 10:00 AM to 10:30 AM, and the notice restricts attendance to that window.
If you want the Zoom interview, email your request to recruitment@actrec.gov.in with the supporting material specified for that route. The email cut-off is earlier than the interview, so check the separate request deadline in the application details before relying on this option.
The notice gives different supporting-material instructions for walk-in and Zoom applicants. Use the requirements for your chosen route when preparing your application, and address the remote-interview request to the recruitment email named above.
