Students can also establish their own Research Lab, with the permission of Government authorities and by strictly following the guidelines issued by them to start their laboratories.

The Council of Scientific & Industrial Research present scholars and researchers with CSIR Awards and prizes to honor them for their efforts and hard work.

 

Laboratory Technician or Support Executive

 

You can work as a Scientific Laboratory Technician or Support Executive after qualifying the exam.

As a Scientific Laboratory Technician, you'll be involved in a variety of laboratory-based investigations like sampling, testing, measuring, recording and analyzing results within biological, chemical, physical and life science areas.

As a scientific laboratory Support Staff, you'll assist the Research Analysts.

While working as a Support Executive in the Research laboratory, your tasks will be to carry out work that assists in the advancement and development of modern science and technology.

 

Lecturer or Assistant Professor

 

Assistant Professor or Lecturer post is considered as one of the most prestigious CSIR NET jobs these days.

After receiving the CSIR NET Certificate for lectureship, candidates can apply for this post in various government universities.

Apart from this, CSIR NET Qualified candidates are considered on a priority basis in the Private Universities too.

Such candidates can be promoted to higher positions like – ‘Head of Department’, ‘Principle’, ‘Vice-Chancellor’ or ‘Director’.

 

PSU Jobs through CSIR NET & Opportunities!

 

CSIR NET Jobs in Public Sector Organizations are highly popular amongst the young candidates. These units offer a wide range of benefits and wonderful salary packages to talented people.

Many Public-Sector Undertakings have started taking interests in the recruitment of CSIR NET qualified candidates. At the time of selection of scientists for research, they consider CSIR scorecards as a priority and hire the candidates based on their abilities.

We are listing a few organizations that offer opportunities to the CSIR NET qualified candidates.

EMBO Practical Course Cryo electron microscopy and 3D image processing

 

About the Practical Course

Each passing year unveils new and path-breaking developments in various aspects of applications of cryo-EM in structural biology, which needs to reach the user community. The practical course features not only intensive training for the participants, but also includes research talks, discussions, and brain-storming sessions on the use of cryo-EM to address difficult biological questions, which will help the participants address their research problems. The course will be an essential component of the various activities occurring periodically in capacity building and future developments in cryo-EM.

The EMBO practical courses on cryo-EM image processing have been organized in India since 2018 (alternate years), which has introduced and provided training to PhD students and postdoctoral fellows from all over the globe on the emerging areas of cryo-EM that have revolutionized structural biology.

The course will be of interest to researchers working in the fields of cell and molecular biology, structure determination of macromolecular complexes, theoretical/computational biology. The course is aimed at participants at the levels of students, postdoctoral researchers, and principal investigators from academic institutions or industry, who would like to apply cryo-EM in their scientific research mainly related to biological problems.

Course Objectives

• To impart training in state-of-the-art techniques for structure determination using cryo-EM
• Introduction to the best sample preparation and data collection strategies (including hands-on experience of sample preparation and demonstration of remote data collection)
• Training in basic principles of structure determination using cryo-EM, including single particle analysis, helical reconstruction and tomography applications
• Hands-on practical training in the latest software suites for image processing of electron micrographs for high resolution structure determination and tomography application
• Exposure to the latest scientific advances in the field through research talks from eminent researchers from across the globe
• Developing problem solving skills through brainstorming sessions, panel discussions and independent practice sessions on participant's data in the presence of experts in the field
• Networking with experts, software developers, and researchers for gaining exposure to the global status of the research in cryo-EM and learn of not only the latest but also upcoming developments
