Tata Memorial Centre (TMC) Scientific Assistant Sleep Lab Recruitment 2026

Tata Memorial Centre (TMC), a Grant-in-Aid institution under India's Department of Atomic Energy, runs Tata Memorial Hospital in Parel, Mumbai — one of the country's leading cancer treatment and research centers. TMC has released Advertisement No. OS/TMH/41/2026 dated 24 July 2026 for the post of Scientific Assistant in the hospital's Sleep Lab. This is an outsourced position hired through M/s. A-1 Facility and Property Managers Pvt. Ltd, the manpower agency that supplies contract staff to TMH — this route lets TMC quickly fill specialised diagnostic support roles alongside its regular online recruitment for permanent posts. Candidates with hands-on Level 1 Sleep Study experience will have an edge in this recruitment, since sleep disorders are increasingly diagnosed and managed alongside cancer treatment. Even science graduates without prior sleep lab experience can apply and build a career in this specialised diagnostic field.

Sleep disorders such as sleep apnea are common among patients undergoing cancer treatment and other serious illnesses, and hospitals increasingly run dedicated sleep labs to diagnose and manage these conditions using polysomnography and related sleep study techniques. As a Scientific Assistant in TMH's Sleep Lab, you would directly support this diagnostic function at one of India's premier cancer hospitals.

The Sleep Lab is located within Tata Memorial Hospital, Dr. Ernest Borges Road, Parel, Mumbai – 400012. Working here gives you exposure to a high-volume, specialised clinical environment, and outsourced roles like this one are often a stepping stone toward longer-term opportunities within TMC's wider network of hospitals and research centres.

Who Can Apply?

• Preferred Experience: 3 years of experience conducting Level 1 Sleep Studies.

Salary
