About us
Faculty, fellows, students, staff researchers, and clinicians across The Friedman Brain Institute come together weekly during the academic year to hear about advances in basic, translational, and clinical research. Most speakers are visiting from other schools and institutes worldwide to present their work and meet with members of Icahn Mount Sinai’s uniquely broad neuroscience community. For more information, please contact Celisse Trafton at celisse.trafton@mssm.edu.
If you are not a member of the Friedman Brain Institute and would like to receive updates about these and other events, please sign up for the FBI mailing list.
