About Me
Dr. During is Clinical Associate Professor of neurology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai with a dual appointment in the Department of Neurology – Division of Movement Disorders, and Department of Medicine – Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care & Sleep Medicine. He trained in neurology at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and psychiatry at Paris Diderot University, and completed a sleep medicine fellowship at the Stanford University. Dr. During studies and treats all sleep conditions associated with neurological disease, including sleep disturbances associated with neurodegenerative disease and normal aging, abnormal dreams or behaviors such as dream-enactment due to REM sleep behavior disorder, sleepwalking, sleep terrors (parasomnias), restless legs syndrome (RLS), abnormal daytime sleepiness due to narcolepsy or other hypersomnias, and disorders causing dysregulation of the sleep-wake control system (circadian disorders, insomnia).
His research focus is REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), more specifically RBD associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's or dementia with Lewy bodies. Dr. During has received federal and industry grant support for conducting research on RBD and Parkinson’s disease. He served as principal investigator on a clinical trial evaluating a new therapy for treatment-resistant RBD (NCT04006925), and site PI on a NIH funded nationwide consortium, the North American Prodromal Synucleinopathy Consortium (NAPS), laying the groundwork for Parkinson's disease prevention trials. He was on a Task Force commissioned by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) to issue the 2022 Clinical Guidelines for the management of RBD, and is a member of the International RBD Study Group (IRBD-SG) – a group of world-experts in RBD ranging from clinicians to basic scientists. Dr. During’s current focus is the development of scalable strategies to detect RBD and early signs of Parkinson’s disease in the general population using wearable devices (wrist-worn sleep trackers).

Patient Experience Star Ratings and Comments
The Patient Experience Star Rating reflects our patients’ perception of how well their Mount Sinai provider communicated with them during an office visit. The Star Rating is based on patient responses to three questions on a patient experience survey, a standardized questionnaire sent to verified patients and distributed by a third party vendor, Press Ganey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.
This was my first visit with Dr During and I had a fair amount of anxiety about the potential diagnosis. He was kind, answered my questions and most importantly, made me feel like I was in the right place for treatment and care.
The doctor was amazing. I have a chronic sleep condition and he is the first doctor I've ever seen who has understood my health situation and provided practical solutions.
Dr. During was very focused. I could actually see him process and evaluate our interaction.
Industry Relationships
Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.
