Additional Information:
- The Mayo Clinic Office of Core Shared Services coordinates investigators' needs for research resources available from its core facilities. Mayo Clinic Research Core Facilities are centralized, shared research resources that provide access to instruments, technologies, testing and services. They provide expert technical and consultative services to investigators engaged in basic science research and clinical trials. These facilities expand investigators' capabilities, foster collaboration, and accelerate discovery and translation.
- Research core facilities make it possible for investigators to focus on their own areas of expertise, augmented by complementary knowledge and assistance from research cores. As a result, promising findings and therapies can more quickly move from the lab to the clinic, where they benefit patients. Research core facilities exist primarily to serve Mayo Clinic study teams, though some facilities also make their services available to investigators worldwide.
- The Core Manager position is an essential role supporting the management of our core facilities, partnering with the Core Director to ensure that the infrastructure and resources are in place to support the services for the research community at Mayo Clinic.
