RESEARCH LEADERSHIP

The research committee members consist of representatives from Mayo Rochester, Scottsdale, and Jacksonville. The makeup of the research committee is therefore consistent with the institutional goal of having “one” institution. Nearly all of the research committee members have external research funding, and all are dedicated to the research career development of our trainees and faculty.
