Research

Mayo Clinic researchers are continually developing improved screening methods and treatments for hereditary polyp disorders, such as FAP, and colorectal cancer. Mayo maintains a Colon Cancer Family Registry to help keep you informed of new screening techniques and procedures. Mayo scientists are working to discover more about the genetic basis of FAP and other hereditary polyp disorders and to clinically translate those genetic findings to medical care. Surgeons also are working to improve treatments, such as laparoscopic techniques for colorectal procedures.

Research: It's all about patients

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Joseph Sirven, M.D., Professor of Neurology, Mayo Clinic: Mayo's mission is about the patient. The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
