Nurse scientists engage with Mayo Clinic physicians and scientists from a variety of disciplines as well as with those external to Mayo Clinic to generate knowledge in fields that span the continuum of care. Mayo Clinic nurse scientists focus on generating symptom science, self-management science, and caregiving science to improve the health of patients with complex conditions. Mayo Clinic nurse scientists are expected to develop and sustain a focused program of research supported by competitive extramural federal/foundation funding sources as well as competitive intramural funding with evidence of a robust publication record in leading peer-reviewed journals in the field.

Scottsdale frequently earns praise as a highly desirable place to live.

The region's desert climate promotes an outdoor lifestyle with a full complement of sports and recreation.
