The Institute for Translational Epidemiology at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is committed to expanding the role of epidemiology in clinical research. The Icahn School is the home of several world-class clinical and research programs and is an ideal setting to establish a strong epidemiology research program to complement existing clinical and preventive activities. Our new concentration areas will build on existing clinical and research strengths in Chronic and Infectious Disease Epidemiology, Mental Health, Occupational Epidemiology, Epidemiologic Methods, Cancer Epidemiology, Life Course Epidemiology, and Molecular and Genetic Epidemiology. Training, education, and health inequalities will be part of the research portfolio.
Our Mission
The mission of the Institute is to develop and facilitate interdisciplinary, collaborative, and translational research integrating population studies, genomic and proteomic research, with the ultimate purpose of spearheading critical changes in clinical practice and improving the treatment of disease and patient quality of life.
