About CMSAN: The vision for CMSAN is to accelerate translational discovery and usher in a new era of “cure and precure” by leveraging the center’s biorepository and Mayo’s Precure initiative to identify at-risk individuals before symptoms appear, enabling earlier interventions such as biomarker-guided treatments and vaccine trials. The CMSAN priorities include expanding decentralized, multi-site clinical trials across Mayo Clinic, advancing innovative therapies, strengthening partnerships with industry and advocacy groups, deepening collaborations across campuses and globally, building an AI-driven data infrastructure, and recruiting and mentoring the next generation of clinician-scientists. • Must have a Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent doctoral degree in a field deemed relevant by the program. • Research Fellow is appropriate for individuals who have completed no more than one prior postdoctoral fellowship, at Mayo Clinic or elsewhere. • Applicants must demonstrate a strong publication record and present a clear career development plan in multiple sclerosis (MS) research. • Applicants are required to submit a research proposal (1–2 pages) that clearly articulates the project’s hypothesis, specific aims, innovation, significance, and any collaborative components. The proposal must also include a statement detailing how the fellowship will facilitate your career advancement and support the generation of preliminary data for future grant applications. Include a training plan that highlights your unique qualifications and contributions to MS research. • Proof of English proficiency is required for J-1 Short-Term Scholars, Research Scholars, Professors, Specialists, and Student Interns sponsored by Mayo Clinic.
