Job description


The Graduate Research Appointment (GRA) is a post-baccalaureate appointment for participants with an interest in biomedical research. The primary purpose is to provide a post-baccalaureate laboratory research experience that applies skills in science, technology, engineering or math to biomedical research including basic science or translational research.  GRA participants will have the opportunity to participate in selected graduate classes and seminars while working in this role.

Additional Information:

Graduate Research Assistant (GRA) - Ramos Laboratory

Department of Medicine and Immunology | Mayo Clinic Arizona

About the Lab - 

The Ramos Laboratory studies how the intestinal lining senses and responds to inflammation. We work at the intersection of mucosal immunology, intestinal stem cell biology, and epigenetic regulation (using patient-derived organoids, single-cell transcriptomics, and microfluidic platforms) to understand the biology underlying Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. We are based at Mayo Clinic Arizona and closely integrated with a broader network of collaborators across the country.

The Position -

We are looking for a college graduate planning to pursue graduate education (including MD, MD-PhD, or PhD programs) to join the lab as a Graduate Research Assistant (GRA). This is a full-time (40 hours/week), one-year post-baccalaureate research position through the Mayo Clinic Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences with the possibility of a one-year extension. You will work on active projects alongside graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, with direct faculty mentorship. The goal is for you to leave with real research experience, a strong publication or presentation record, and a clearer scientific identity heading into your next step.

Responsibilities -

  • Design and carry out experiments in intestinal epithelial biology and mucosal immunology
  • Participate in lab meetings, journal clubs, and departmental seminars
  • Present your work internally and at research forums
  • Engage with career development and networking resources through Mayo Clinic Graduate School

What We Are Looking For -

  • Bachelor's degree in biological sciences, bioengineering, or a related field
  • Plans to pursue graduate education in a biomedical field
  • Prior laboratory experience is expected; hands-on work with cell culture (particularly epithelial cells, organoids or T cells) is a plus
  • Experience with microfluidic devices, immune cell assays, or flow cytometry is a plus
  • Familiarity with R or Python is a plus
  • Someone who takes ownership of their work and is genuinely curious about the science

This vacancy is not eligible for sponsorship. We will not sponsor or transfer visas for this position. Also, Mayo Clinic DOES NOT participate in the F-1 STEM OPT extension program.

This is a one-year limited tenure position that may have the possibility of a one-year extension.
