Investigation in clinical, translational, or basic science is encouraged as are active roles in education or departmental leadership. Integration of adult and pediatric services within one institution offers abundant opportunities for intramural funding, mentorship, epidemiologic databases, clinical trial unit, grant review, manuscript review, as well as collaboration with clinical, basic, and translational scientists throughout the Mayo Clinic enterprise. The division is an active Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) site.
