Mount Sinai is dedicated to sustaining a welcoming environment where everyone feels a sense of belonging. We respect diversity of all kinds, including opinions and viewpoints. This collaborative and collegial environment among faculty, students, trainees, and staff is critical to maintaining overall excellence at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Indeed, our groundbreaking discoveries in biomedical science and our clinical innovation stem from the diversity and talent of our world-class research and clinical faculty. 

Our institution's inclusion efforts and resources to create open and fair pathways to success for all our faculty, students, trainees, and staff, are both broad and detailed. We offer sustained and committed leadership from a cross section of scholars and clinicians.

I am extremely proud to work with such committed, talented, and creative individuals. Their efforts, and the others you will read about on this site, are essential to advancing our mission, demonstrating the breadth of our commitment to everyone at Mount Sinai feeling welcomed and appreciated and having the tools and opportunities to thrive and flourish both personally and professionally.
