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.
