This position will be critical to making Mayo Clinic a global leader in a new era of health care that focuses on genomic medicine. The selected candidate will participate in the development and implementation of genetic counseling services in the advancement and translation of genomic medicine joining a team of experienced genetic counselors, nurses and genetic counseling assistants. This team supports multiple clinical services including Predictive Genomics and the Genetic Testing and Counseling (GTAC) Unit. Both clinical services include pre and post-test counseling and test facilitation through onsite or telemedicine appointments. GTAC genetic counselors work closely with a team of physicians in a variety of departments throughout Mayo Clinic with the aim of integrating genomics into subspecialty patient care focusing on rare and undiagnosed diseases.
