Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, seeks an accomplished and visionary leader to serve as chair of the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, Metabolism and Nutrition. The chair will set the division’s strategic direction and oversee its performance across clinical care, research and education. Key responsibilities include recruiting and retaining exceptional scientific and clinical talent; fostering interdisciplinary collaboration across departments and campuses; and aligning critical resources to advance high-impact, innovative programs that support Mayo Clinic’s three shields: Practice, Research and Education.

Candidates must hold the academic rank of associate professor or higher and have a proven track record of leadership experience, academic accomplishments, and the ability to collaborate effectively with a broad spectrum of expert clinicians and scientists while maintaining high-quality patient care and satisfaction. Expertise in diabetes — particularly in the rapidly evolving areas of islet cell biology, immune protection and evasion, stem cell–derived islet therapeutics, and translational approaches aimed at durable disease modification and cure — is highly desirable. We also welcome distinguished leaders in other endocrine domains, including metabolism, bone and mineral, pituitary, adrenal, thyroid, reproductive endocrinology, and nutrition sciences.

The Division of Diabetes, Endocrinology, Metabolism and Nutrition in Rochester has been ranked No. 1 in the nation for Diabetes and Endocrinology by U.S. News & World Report’s Best Hospitals rankings for 29 consecutive years. Its top-ranked endocrinologists work closely with Mayo Clinic specialists in Ophthalmology, Otolaryngology, Radiation Oncology, Surgery, Obstetrics, Transplantation and other specialty areas to deliver a multidisciplinary approach to care.

Comprised of approximately 40 endocrinologists, the division has notable expertise and research in endocrine neoplasia, pituitary disease, endocrine-associated transplantation conditions, diabetes and thyroid disorders. The division is also actively involved in medical education and sponsors an Endocrine Fellowship that is fully accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education.
