At
Mayo Clinic, clinicians and scientists work as a team to form a
close link between patient care and research. This teamwork has
produced a long history of achievement in the areas of basic and
translational research, including a Nobel Prize for the development
of cortisone.
For patients, this means that their Mayo physicians are both up-to-date
in their medical specialties and knowledgeable about the newest
scientific discoveries and treatment options.
For investigators, this collaborative approach ensures an opportunity
for basic as well as translational research that provides the satisfaction
of seeing your research findings directly improve the health and
lives of people.
Research at Mayo is characterized by collaboration among research
groups and shared resources. An annual budget exceeding $296 million,
with more than half coming from NIH and other extramural sources,
supports a wide range of research programs.
Research resources are coordinated through centralized Research
Services, so investigation can proceed quickly and efficiently.
Individual labs and investigators need not spend precious research
time with administrative activities.
The full array of activities within the basic and clinical research
enterprise can be found at Mayo's Research
Web site.
