Responsibilities

The Nathan P.

The fellow will design and execute experiments that combine advanced stem‑cell culture and differentiation, CRISPR‑based perturbations, high‑content imaging, electrophysiology, and transcriptomic/proteomic analyses to dissect pathways in axonal transport, RNA/protein homeostasis, and to identify and validate therapeutic targets. Responsibilities include quantitative data analysis, manuscript preparation, presentation of findings at national meetings, and collaborative work with clinicians, bioengineers, and computational scientists. 

A Research Fellow at Mayo Clinic is a temporary position intended to provide training and education in research. Individuals will train in the research program of a Mayo Clinic principal investigator. Qualified individuals will demonstrate the potential for research as evidenced by their training and peer-reviewed publications and should become competitive for national research grants.
