IntroductionI am an anesthesiologist and critical care informatician whose research focuses on transforming clinical data into actionable intelligence that improves patient safety and outcomes. My work spans clinical decision support, real-time surveillance systems, artificial intelligence, and human-centered design for acute and critical care environments. I have led the development and evaluation of clinical intelligence platforms including AWARE, AMP, and CEDAR. I welcome mentees interested in clinical informatics, AI in healthcare, critical care, implementation science, and translational research. My goal is to help trainees develop impactful projects that bridge technology, clinical practice, and healthcare delivery. |

IntroductionThe Biology of Aging and Age-Related Diseases Laboratory, within the Department of Physiology and Biomedical Engineering at Mayo Clinic, investigates the biological mechanisms that drive aging and age-related diseases. Our work focuses on cellular senescence and its role in cognitive decline, neurodegeneration, metabolic dysfunction, and frailty. Using state-of-the-art approaches including animal models, human tissues, spatial biology, and single-cell technologies, we aim to develop interventions that promote healthy aging and extend healthspan. Students in the laboratory gain hands-on experience in cutting-edge aging research while contributing to projects with direct translational relevance to human health. |

IntroductionHi! I'm Elizabeth Enninga, a graduate of Mayo Graduate School and now an Associate Professor at Mayo Clinic. My research focuses on women's health, pregnancy immunology, and improving outcomes for both mothers and babies. I am passionate about mentoring the next generation of scientists and creating a supportive environment where students can grow, take risks, and develop independence. Outside of the lab, I enjoy exploring new parks and coffee shops with my family, playing tennis, and relaxing with a good book and a glass of wine. I'm looking for students who are motivated, curious, and kind. Scientific techniques can be taught, but passion, perseverance, and caring about your work are what make great scientists. |

IntroductionDr. Kathryn Knoop is a faculty member in the Department of Immunology, with a joint affiliation with the Department of Pediatrics. She is a mucosal immunologist by training and focuses on how the body perceives the microbes that live on the mucosal surfaces. Projects include understanding how the microbiota can harbor pathogens, which can result in infection, and how the microbiota can beneficially support the development of the immune system. Dr. Knoop's lab is particularly focused on these concepts during infancy, or early life prior to weaning, which is a time in life when the microbiota and immune system dynamically develop. |

IntroductionDr. Dalvin is a surgeon-scientist with a clinical practice in ocular oncology and a translational research laboratory focused on uveal melanoma. Her laboratory pioneered the development of patient-derived organoid models for uveal melanoma, which provide a more translationally relevant platform for mechanistic and therapeutic studies. She has over 200 peer-reviewed publications and has held numerous leadership positions, including in ARVO, AAOOP, AAO, ISOO, and journal editorial boards. Her laboratory works toward better translation of novel therapeutics that will improve quality of life and overall survival for patients throughout the world affected by eye cancer. |

IntroductionThe diverse team of researchers led by Dr. Da Mesquita is focused on determining and testing the factors that increase the risk for neurological diseases by mediating long-lasting changes in the meningeal lymphatic vasculature and in central nervous system immunity. Employing complementary approaches including genetically modified mice, human tissue and fluid samples, and state-of-the-art techniques, like in vivo fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, and single-cell RNA sequencing, Dr. Da Mesquita and his team aim at understanding how the meningeal lymphatic vasculature modulates brain function along the mammalian lifespan, and is able to affect the progression and outcome of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson's. |
