Mini Fellowship Application
Overview
Mayo Clinic Center for Tuberculosis (MCCT) offers a 2-5 day mini-fellowship to provide first-hand knowledge and experience in carrying out various aspects of TB prevention and control. The goal is to share TB expertise and knowledge with healthcare providers in a variety of settings, which can then be translated into clinical and public health practice. Our Center works to meet the individual needs of those who attend by assessing areas of practice and communities served and matching identified objectives with appropriate activities. Depending on the identified experience and needs of the learner, the proposed mini-fellowship will provide a more personal and intensive experience in a variety of settings, including opportunities to:
- Meet with and observe a tuberculosis (TB) clinician
- Present a clinical case
- Discuss cases with TB experts
- Visit laboratory facilities for the diagnosis of TB
- Observe TB control activities in public health offices
Requirements
Applicants must be from one of the 11 project areas (North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebraska, Texas, and the city of Houston) and work with TB patients in either a clinical or public health setting (e.g., physicians, nurses, outreach workers, disease investigators).
Fellowships are based in Rochester, Minnesota. All travel arrangements and expenses are the sole responsibility of the applicant.
In addition to completing the application form, please email a copy of your resume/CV to tbcenter@mayo.edu.
Upon acceptance as an MCCTB fellow, a letter of support from your institution/organization director is required.
