Our Military Medicine Program serves as a central hub for Mayo Clinic researchers and collaborators seeking to engage with DOD research initiatives. This collaboration ensures our scientists understand the distinct challenges faced by service members—both in uniform and in civilian life—and helps shape research that directly supports their well-being.

In addition to fostering innovation, the program actively partners with the DOD to explore new opportunities where Mayo Clinic’s strengths—such as complex care delivery and transplantation—can make a meaningful impact. Whether it's supporting active-duty personnel, veterans, or retirees, Mayo Clinic is committed to advancing military medicine on and off the battlefield.
