IIT BHU Project Research Scientist I Recruitment 2026: Overview

Indian Institute of Technology (Banaras Hindu University), Varanasi (IIT BHU) is recruiting a Project Research Scientist I, Non-Medical, for a biomedical engineering project led by Dr. Sudip Mukherjee. Funded by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), the project studies metabolites-based triazole analogues for treating hepatic fibrosis. This is a project-linked research appointment at the institute in Varanasi.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Research context: The project brings together the synthesis and screening of a new class of compounds for biological evaluation. Its focus is hepatic fibrosis, and the appointment sits within the biomedical engineering research group named in the notice.
• Project identity: The notice gives project number RISE/SA/ICMR/BME/26-27/921 and ICMR reference 2026RPMS00001884. These identify the triazole study when you contact the principal investigator about this opening.
