Please note the basis of this post: the official JIPMER PDF could not be read from our system, so the details here rest on a transcription of the notification alone, with no second source found for this advertisement. Also do not confuse this post with the separate JIPMER Project Technical Support-III post for the SAFEFEED Trial in Neonatology, which has a different project, a different email address and a last date of 22 November 2026 — that is a different post entirely.
