Goran Bajic, PhD
About Me
My research interests have always focused on understanding molecular mechanisms underlying basic questions in biology.
I am a structural biologist with a particular interest in immune recognition of viral pathogens.
My lab currently studies B cell receptor signaling complexes as well as how antibodies recognize viruses. We use integrative structural biology approaches - cryo-EM and X-ray crystallography - combined with biochemistry, immunology and virology techniques.

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.
Dr. Bajic has not yet completed reporting of industry relationships or has no industry relationships to report.
Mount Sinai’s faculty policies relating to faculty collaboration with industry are posted on our website. Patients may wish to ask their physician about the activities they perform for companies.
