About Me
Jamil M. Lane, PhD, MPH, is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Environmental Epidemiology of the Department of Environmental Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. As a dually trained developmental cognitive scientist and environmental epidemiologist, Dr. Lane’s research investigates early-life obesogenic and environmental neurotoxic exposures that longitudinally program neurodevelopmental and neurobehavioral dimensions using advanced statistical applications such as longitudinal latent variable modeling, chemical mixture analysis, and causal mediation analysis.
He received his PhD in Human Development with an emphasis on cognitive development and quantitative methods from the University of Rochester as a Scandling Scholar, where his research investigated the longitudinal effect of obesogenic food environments on body mass index and executive functioning in adolescents. Subsequently, he completed an NIH/NICHD T32 Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in the Pediatric Exposomics Training Program under the mentorship of Robert O. Wright, MD, MPH, in the Department of Environmental Medicine. Dr. Lane is honored to be a former recipient of the prestigious NIH MOSAIC K99/R00 Pathway to Independence Award, funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.

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.
