Biography Marlyn Mayo, M.D., is a Professor in the Department of Internal Medicine at UT Southwestern Medical Center and a member of the Division of Digestive and Liver Diseases. She specializes in the diagnosis and management of acute and chronic liver diseases and has a keen interest in immune-mediated and cholestatic liver diseases such as primary biliary cirrhosis, autoimmune hepatitis, and primary sclerosing cholangitis. Originally from Syracuse, New York, Dr. Mayo holds a bachelor's degree in psychology from Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. She obtained her medical degree from Baylor College of Medicine in Houston and completed internal medicine residency training at the University of California-Irvine. She then received advanced training through a fellowship program in gastroenterology and hepatology at UT Southwestern. Certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine in gastroenterology, Dr. Mayo joined the UT Southwestern faculty in 1996. Dr. Mayo came to UT Southwestern to do research and work on the largest PBC trial at the time with Burton Combs, M.D., who started the liver unit at UT Southwestern. Later, Dr. Mayo worked with Peter Lipsky, M.D., to conduct research on intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). From there, she started to treat other diseases that relate to pregnancy and liver diseases. Dr. Mayo's research focuses on the pathogenesis of autoimmune liver diseases. The molecular events involved in bile duct damage in primary biliary cirrhosis and the development of cryoglobulins in hepatitis C are current areas of investigation. She studies how the T cell receptors and other co-stimulatory molecules on the surface of B and T lymphocytes participate in the genesis and chronic perpetuation of autoimmune diseases. Dr. Mayo also conducts clinical trials in the UT Southwestern General Clinical Research Center investigating new treatments for primary biliary cirrhosis. Dr. Mayo has been involved in setting the standards for medical education. She has been both the Associate Program Director and Program Director of the Gastroenterology Fellowship program at UT Southwestern. Dr. Mayo is a member of several professional societies, including the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, the American Gastroenterological Association, the Texas Medical Association, the Dallas County Medical Society, and the American College of Gastroenterology. Dr. Mayo was included in D Magazine's Best Doctors list for 2018.
