National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research, Guwahati (NIPER Guwahati) is hiring project scientists for its Technical Resource Hub under the Centre for Evidence-Based Guidelines. The Department of Health Research, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, sponsors this project, which brings evidence-based healthcare research into a pharmaceutical education setting.
You would join a contractual project team at an institute under the Department of Pharmaceuticals, Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers. The notice brings together scientist grades within the same hub, so you should read the conditions for your chosen grade carefully.

- Institutional discretion: The institute may leave advertised positions unfilled for administrative reasons.
- Updates: Official messages will come through your registered email or the institute website. Keep checking both so you do not miss communication about your application.
