About Me
Dr. Mukherjee obtained his PhD in Animal Genetics from Stony Brook University before joining the lab of Dr. James Bieker as a postdoctoral fellow studying transcription mechanisms of gene regulation in erythropoiesis and erythroid disease. Currently, he is an assistant research professor working on erythroid transcription regulation by EKLF/KLF1 through its interactions with the general transcription machinery during normal and ineffective eryrthropoiesis. His current research focuses on transcription elongation regulation by BET proteins during normal human erythropoiesis and the rare erythroid disorder CDA IV.

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. Mukherjee has not yet completed reporting of industry relationships or has no industry relationships to report.
