Project Name & Funding Authority: Understanding HPV16 E7 mediated gene regulatory mechanisms in HPV16 related
cervical cancer pathogenesis [Funded by: Department of Biotechnology, Government of India, Ministry of Science and
Technology].
Project description: Cervical cancer is the most common cancer among Indian women of the lower socioeconomic
strata and happens to be highly mortal. Oncogenic human papillomavirus infection, which is sexually transmitted, is
the major etiological factor that causes this deadly disease. HPV infection contributes to neoplastic progression
through the action of viral oncoproteins, mainly E6 and E7. In our laboratory, we have been exploring the mechanisms
of cervical carcinogenesis driven by the HPV16 encoded oncogenic protein E7, employing genomics based tools
coupled with functional assays. In the current proposal, we aim at understanding the impact of HPV16 E7 on global
transcriptional processes in cervical cancers by regulating coding and non-coding transcripts. Besides providing
mechanistic insights, this would help identify more robust target molecules for tackling such cancers.
Walk-in interview is being organized for recruiting one Junior Research Fellow (JRF) to conduct experiments based on
clinical samples plus cell culture based experiments and one Research Associate (RA) for conducting more
sophisticated experiments including ChIP-seq. RNA-seq and analysis of such data towards meeting the objectives of
the project.
The date of walk-in interview is January 25, 2018 (Thursday) starting from 10 A.M. The age limit for JRF is maximum
28 years on the day of the interview. No TA/DA will be paid for attending the interview.
Following documents are required at the time of interview:
1. Curriculum Vitae along with reprints of publications, if any
2. One Passport- size coloured Photograph
2. Self-Attested Copies of Certificates of Educational Qualifications
3. Self-Attested Copies of Experience Certificates
4. Govt. issued Photo ID proof (Preferably Aadhar Card)
