About us
Mayo Clinic has expanded and changed in many ways, but our values remain true to the vision of our founders. Our primary value – The needs of the patient come first – guides our plans and decisions as we create the future of health care. Join us and you'll find a culture of teamwork, professionalism and mutual respect, and most importantly, a life-changing career. Mayo Clinic was founded in Rochester, Minnesota by brothers Dr. William James Mayo and Dr. Charles Horace Mayo. More than 100 years later, their vision continues to evolve around a single guiding value: "The needs of the patient come first." Today we are the largest integrated, not for-profit medical group practice in the world. We are recognized for high-quality patient care more than any other academic medical center in the nation. These endorsements are very gratifying, but also humbling. They remind us of the tradition that has been entrusted to each one of us, and the legacy of excellence that we uphold every day.

Endometriosis is an often painful condition in which tissue that is similar to the inner lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus. Common symptoms of endometriosis include painful periods, pain with sex, pain with bowel movements or urination, and excessive bleeding. Dr. Wendaline VanBuren, M.D., a Mayo Clinic radiologist who specializes in gynecologic imaging, explains the symptoms, how it is diagnosed, treatment options and more.

An NIH-funded study team, led by Megan Allyse, Ph.D., an associate professor of Biomedical Ethics at Mayo Clinic in Florida and Rosario Isasi, J.D., M.P.H., a research associate professor at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, is conducting research with patients and communities across a wide spectrum of conditions with genomic origins – including spinal muscular atrophy, sickle cell disease, Huntington’s disease, and hereditary hearing loss - to understand how gene editing technologies like CRISPR-CAS9 and its descendants might impact the prevention of or therapy for genomic conditions. “It’s important to understand what the values and goals of patients are when translating genomic technologies into clinical care,” says Dr. Allyse. “We are interested in promoting new therapies that work for all patients, regardless of mutation, financial situation, or location.” The team recently announced a partnership with BioNews, which hosts the largest online patient engagement platform for rare disease communities. Dr. Allyse says “it’s important to stay very close to the patient communities throughout the research process. Otherwise, you risk developing interventions that are not acceptable to those communities.” More information on the study can be found at: https://bit.ly/4f7kwJT

Current screening protocols fail to catch a notable number of people carrying genetic mutations associated with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome and Lynch syndrome, which increase the risk of developing certain cancers. This issue is particularly pronounced among underrepresented minorities. These research findings, published in JCO Precision Oncology, are based on genetic screenings of more than 44,000 study participants from diverse backgrounds. For this Mayo Clinic Center for Individualized Medicine Tapestry project, researchers sequenced the exomes — the protein-coding regions of genes — because this is where most disease-causing mutations are found. They identified 550 people, or 1.24%, as carriers of the hereditary mutations. Learn more about the study: https://mayocl.in/4cIwyrn

Researchers at Mayo Clinic have published new criteria for a memory-loss syndrome in older adults caused by changes to the brain’s limbic system. It is often mistaken for Alzheimer's disease. The good news: Limbic-predominant Amnestic Neurodegenerative Syndrome, or LANS, progresses more slowly and has a better prognosis. Learn more: https://mayocl.in/3zN1N66
