Overview

The GI Motility Fellowship at Mayo Clinic in Minnesota offers advanced training in gastrointestinal motility science and practice. It is intended for physicians pursuing academic careers in gastroenterology with a subspecialty focus on motility disorders of the digestive tract.

Supervised by experienced physicians, this one-year fellowship provides hands-on experience in managing patients with gastrointestinal motility disorders. It also includes experience in conducting gastrointestinal motility tests.

Highlights of the program include:

Clinical training in GI Motility at an outpatient motility clinic and inpatient consultations for patients with suspected motility disorders.
Laboratory training occurs in clinical laboratories that assess motility disorders. It includes opportunities to learn research-based techniques for patient-oriented research.
An opportunity to pursue research projects with one or more mentors in the GI Motility Interest Group. There is also an opportunity to spend an additional, optional year in basic or applied research in GI motility.

Motility fellows and faculty collaborate together in the hallway at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.
