Ivan Marazzi, PhD
About Me
The Marazzi lab studies epigenetic- and chromatin- mediated control of gene expression in the context of cellular response to pathogens or cellular differentiation. We are interested in proteins and non-coding RNA that play a role in controlling cell response and cell fate. We use biochemistry and next generation sequencing technique to understand molecular mechanisms and genome-wide effects of known and novel candidate genes.

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.
