Neuro-Oncologist

Job Description

The Mayo Clinic in Florida is searching for a highly motivated, academic neuro-oncologist to join a rapidly expanding Brain Tumor Program in Jacksonville.  Over the last 5 years, the Program  has  seen  a  3-fold  increase  in  clinical  volume  and  added eleven additional faculty with specialty interests directly related to brain tumor research and clinical care, including in neurosurgery, neuropathology, radiation oncology, neuropsychology, neuroradiology, and neuro-oncology, and we are  now  looking to  expand  further. The  Brain  Tumor  Program  at Mayo Clinic Florida is closely integrated with corresponding brain  tumor  programs at  Mayo  Clinic Rochester  and  Mayo  Clinic Arizona.  Examples of this integration include participation in Mayo Clinic-wide brain tumor clinical trials, which is facilitated by  the  Mayo  Clinic’s  designation  as  the organizing center for the U19 Glioma Therapeutics Network (NCI);  joint  research  and  clinical  conferences;  and  leadership  in U54, P01 and P50 multi-institutional and multi-investigator awards.  Mayo Clinic is a Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center by NCI including participation in NCI cooperative group studies. Ample opportunities  for  clinical  and  translational  research are  available through highly collaborative basic and translational science departments, and this will be enhanced further with the planned acquisition of both proton beam and heavy particle beam facilities in the next several years.

The successful applicant will contribute to the clinical care of brain  tumor  and  cancer  neurology  patients,  to  the  teaching  of students, residents, and fellows, and to the development of clinical trials in neuro-oncology, including studies based on translational research within the Mayo Clinic enterprise.  The applicant should be ABPN Board certified or eligible in Neurology  and  qualified  for  a  Florida Medical  license.  UCNS board eligibility in Neuro-Oncology is strongly encouraged.

Interested applicants should submit their CV and a list of three references.
