Mayo Clinic
Rochester, Minnesota

Mayo Clinic's campus in Rochester, Minnesota, offers a one-year Autoimmune Neurology Fellowship. This fellowship is designed to train academic neurologists in the emerging 21st-century subspecialty of autoimmune neurology. With dual training in our neuroimmunology laboratory and designated autoimmune neurology clinic, there is a unique opportunity to practice bench-to-bedside medicine. Fellows become skilled in neural antibody detection and methodology and benefit from the broad range of autoimmune disorders encountered in our large autoimmune neurology clinic. This fellowship ideally complements other subspecialty neurology training (eg, multiple sclerosis). Education is a priority with a 12 lecture autoimmune neurology course and weekly neuroimmunology case conference with faculty and trainee interaction. Clinical and translational research opportunities are abundant with excellent mentors and the potential for a 2nd year with greater research emphasis. The program can be tailored to your specific needs and goals. Graduates will be prepared for a cutting-edge career in academic neurology. For more information, click here.
