Graduate Trainee/JRF Positions @Organ Mechanobiology Lab | NCBS Bangalore

Curious about how organs take shape and function? Passionate about cell biology, development, or biomechanics? We’re a brand-new lab at NCBS using C. elegans to uncover how mechanical and biochemical signals drive organ morphogenesis.

We’re looking for final-year BS-MS/Master’s students or recent grads who are eager to explore research at the intersection of biology and physics. You’ll get hands-on experience with genetic tools, CRISPR, live imaging, laser ablations, and more. Come help build something from scratch – your ideas, curiosity, and energy will shape this lab!

💡 What you’ll do:

• Get trained in imaging and worm handling

• Learn advanced molecular, cell biology, and biophysics techniques

• Take charge of your own mini-project over time

• Work in a collaborative, mentorship-driven environment

 Ideal for curious minds aiming for a research career or PhD. Prior experience is great but not a must.
 Preference for candidates who can stay 12+ months.

📬 To apply, email [pritiagarwal@ncbs.res.in] with your CV, a short note on your research experience, and your long-term goals.
