Research
Physical Activity Genomics, Epigenomics/transcriptomics Site (PAGES): Identify the molecular responses that mediate the effects of exercise in humans.
Epigenetic Characterization and Observation (ECHO): Find epigenetic markers in blood that identify previous exposures and time of exposure to materials that could be associated with threat exposures.

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.
Below are financial relationships with industry reported by Dr. Nair during 2025 and/or 2026. Please note that this information may differ from information posted on corporate sites due to timing or classification differences.
