2 Research Associate vacancies at Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Pune (IISER Pune)
Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Pune (IISER Pune) invites applications from eligible candidates for filling 2 posts of Research Associate on fixed-term basis under a research project. Applications must be submitted on or before 21-03-2026.
| Post Name | Research Associate |
| Project Name | Development of Self-Assembling Antibody-Drug Conjugates (SADCs) as Next-Generation Cancer Therapeutics |
| Project Description | This project focuses on the engineering of Self-Assembling Antibody-Drug Conjugates (SADCs), an advanced class of "magic bullets" for oncology. Unlike traditional ADCs that rely on complex chemical conjugation, SADCs are designed to spontaneously organize into stable, nanostructured therapeutic units. This approach aims to achieve a precise Drug-to-Antibody Ratio (DAR), enhance tumor penetration, and reduce systemic toxicity by ensuring the cytotoxic payload is only released within the acidic environment of cancer cells. This research is funded by a Private Agency (e.g., a pharmaceutical corporation or a specialized biotech venture capital fund). |
| Duration | Initially one year, extendable subject to performance and project continuation |
| Vacancies | 2 |
| Qualification | - Ph.D. in Chemistry or related areas.
- Candidates who have submitted thesis may also apply.
|
| Monthly Salary | Rs. 45,000/- per month |
| Age Limit | maximum 35 years as on 21-03-2026 |
| Selection Process | Preliminary shortlisting will be done on the basis of academic qualifications, and selection will be finalized through interviews. |
