Description
Mayo Clinic School of Graduate Medical Education offers a one-year Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring (IONM) Fellowship in Rochester, Minnesota. Fellows train with physicians, technologists, and surgical teams across routine and complex procedures, developing skills in equipment setup, signal acquisition, troubleshooting, and real-time interpretation. Training progresses from direct supervision to greater responsibility in both in-room and supervised on-site remote monitoring.
Protected research time supports retrospective and prospective studies, quality improvement initiatives, and hypothesis-driven projects. Fellows can use an internal database of monitored cases, Mayo Clinic Data Explorer, and artificial intelligence–based data tools. The Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Research Design Resource supports study design, analysis, and dissemination. Faculty mentorship, teaching opportunities, and national meeting support complement clinical training and preparation for independent practice.
