AIIMS Jodhpur Research Associate-III Recruitment 2026 — 1 Post, Walk-in 24 Aug

All India Institute of Medical Sciences Jodhpur (AIIMS Jodhpur) has released its Research Associate-III Recruitment 2026 notification, inviting applications for 1 post on a contractual basis. The notification was issued on 13 August 2026, and eligible candidates can attend the walk-in interview on 24 August 2026. Applicants need a PhD/MD/MS/MDS or equivalent degree, or an MVSc/M.Pharm/ME/M.Tech/M.Sc with at least 3 years of research experience and one research paper published in a Science Citation Indexed (SCI) Journal. The Research Associate-III role at AIIMS Jodhpur carries a maximum age limit of 35 years, with age relaxation for SC/ST/OBC/PWD candidates as per Government of India norms. Selection for this AIIMS Jodhpur post involves an Interview, with a Screening Test conducted only if a large number of candidates apply. Selected candidates will receive a consolidated monthly pay of Rs. 67,000, plus HRA. Interested candidates should attend the walk-in interview at AIIMS Jodhpur on 24 August 2026 with all original documents and self-attested photocopies, since there is no application fee for any category. This AIIMS Jodhpur Research Associate-III post offers two eligibility routes reflecting different career stages — a straightforward PhD/MD/MS/MDS route for those with a completed doctoral or equivalent medical degree, or a Master's-level route requiring both 3 years of research experience and a peer-reviewed SCI publication, ensuring that non-PhD candidates still demonstrate substantial independent research capability before being considered equivalent. Candidates should note that a Screening Test will only be conducted if a large number of applicants attend the walk-in, so the actual selection process could range from a single interview to a more layered evaluation depending on turnout — candidates should be prepared for either scenario when attending on 24 August 2026. Candidates applying via the Master's-level route should carry a copy of their published SCI-indexed research paper, along with proof of their 3 years of research experience, since this documentation directly establishes their eligibility equivalence to the PhD/MD/MS/MDS route for this AIIMS Jodhpur post. This role offers a competitive stipend for a contractual research position at one of India's premier medical institutions in Rajasthan.
