Recruitment for Senior Technology officer and Research Associate positions
Regional
Centre for Biotechnology invites applications from suitably qualified,
dynamic, result oriented and dedicated candidates for the following
positions on contractual basis with consolidated emoluments under “Inter-Institutional Program for Maternal, Neonatal and Infant Sciences: A translational approach to studying preterm birth”.
Preterm
birth is one of the major global public health problems and it is the
single largest cause of neonatal deaths. India contributes the highest
number of preterm birth and deaths worldwide (~25%). From a clinical
perspective, it is of paramount importance to understand the molecular
processes involved in preterm birth for early prediction, or prevention
of preterm birth. RCB will lead the proteomics component of preterm
birth project. We will be investigating the proteomics alterations that
occur at different stages of pregnancy, identify the proteins that are
associated with preterm birth and an integrative analysis of genomic and
proteomic alterations in order to identify physiological and molecular
pathway mechanisms that are altered in relation to preterm birth. The
longterm goal for this project is to identify the biomarkers relevant
for early prediction of preterm birth or future target molecule for drug
discovery.
RCB has integrated proteomics
platform comprising of Triple-TOF 5600 Mass Spectrometry system
(ABSciex) and MALDI-TOF/TOF 5800 System (ABSciex), with high-end
computing facility.
