Description
The Bone and Soft Tissue Pathology Fellowship at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, is an intensive, one-year ACGME-accredited training program designed for physicians seeking advanced expertise in the diagnosis of benign and malignant bone and soft tissue tumors. Fellows review approximately 5,000 consultation cases annually and benefit from extensive in-house ancillary studies (including immunohistochemistry, molecular genetics, and cytogenetics), as well as robust research opportunities. The program emphasizes multidisciplinary collaboration, integrating surgery, oncology, radiology, and nuclear medicine, and prepares fellows for careers in academic or large private referral centers. Clinicopathological research is strongly encouraged, and fellows are expected to complete at least one research project with submission for publication.
