This individual is expected to establish a robust research program utilizing neuropathological tools to address complex neurological disease processes and aging and to become an integral member of the Mayo Clinic Brain Bank team.
Candidates are expected to provide neuropathological diagnoses, with a focus on autopsy pathology, rather than neurosurgical pathology. They would provide assessments on brains submitted to the Mayo Clinic Brain Bank for diagnostic evaluation and research, including establishment and use of latest approaches in biospecimen banking and neuropathologic characterizations. These approaches may include, but are not limited to quantitative neuropathology, spatial multi-omics, AI-assisted phenotyping. In addition to supporting the Mayo Clinic Brain Bank activities and investigators who utilize samples and data from the Brain Bank, the candidate is expected to establish an independent, extramurally funded research program. The candidate is also expected to participate in education and institutional administrative activities.

The Department spans all Mayo Clinic sites and includes 28 primary faculty members, 62 allied health staff, 126 postdoctoral associates, and 36 doctoral students. Scientists within the neuroscience department have strong expertise in neurogenomics, neuropathology, disease modeling, molecular and cell biology, immunity, and experimental therapeutics. The Department faculty play key roles in the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center and other large-scale NIH-funded consortia. The Mayo Clinic Brain Bank housed within the department is directed by Dr. Dennis Dickson and has banked postmortem brains from approximately 11,000 individuals with neruodegenerative dementias, movement disorders, neurovascular, neuroimmune and motor neuron diseases, as well as unaffected controls. The brain bank serves various projects and programs within the institution, as well as supporting the broader research community including serving as the brain bank for the Mayo Clinic Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC) and CurePSP. In 2022, the Department of Neuroscience received over $35M in funding the majority of which was from federal grants.
