About the Mount Sinai Health System:

Mount Sinai Health System is one of the largest academic medical systems in the New York metro area, with more than 48,000 employees working across eight hospitals, more than 400 outpatient practices, more than 300 labs, a school of nursing, and a leading school of medicine and graduate education. Mount Sinai advances health for all people, everywhere, by taking on the most complex health care challenges of our time - discovering and applying new scientific learning and knowledge; developing safer, more effective treatments; educating the next generation of medical leaders and innovators; and supporting local communities by delivering high-quality care to all who need it. Through the integration of its hospitals, labs, and schools, Mount Sinai offers comprehensive health care solutions from birth through geriatrics, leveraging innovative approaches such as artificial intelligence and informatics while keeping patients' medical and emotional needs at the center of all treatment. The Health System includes more than 9,000 primary and specialty care physicians; 13 joint-venture outpatient surgery centers throughout the five boroughs of New York City, Westchester, Long Island, and Florida; and more than 30 affiliated community health centers. We are consistently ranked by U.S. News & World Report's Best Hospitals, receiving high "Honor Roll" status, and are highly ranked: No. 1 in Geriatrics, top 5 in Cardiology/Heart Surgery, and top 20 in Diabetes/Endocrinology, Gastroenterology/GI Surgery, Neurology/Neurosurgery, Orthopedics, Pulmonology/Lung Surgery, Rehabilitation, and Urology. New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai is ranked No. 12 in Ophthalmology. U.S. News & World Report's "Best Children's Hospitals" ranks Mount Sinai Kravis Children's Hospital among the country's best in several pediatric specialties. The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is ranked No. 11 nationwide in National Institutes of Health funding and in the 99th percentile in research dollars per investigator according to the Association of American Medical Colleges. Newsweek's "The World's Best Smart Hospitals" ranks The Mount Sinai Hospital as No. 1 in New York and in the top five globally, and Mount Sinai Morningside in the top 20 globally.

Conduct research that integrates experimental immunology with computational analyses of omics data. The position requires designing, executing, and analyzing both wet lab assays and computational pipelines, with the goal of advancing translational approaches to immunology and transplantation biology. The fellow will also prepare manuscripts, present findings at conferences, and collaborate closely with clinicians and scientists.

Specific Research Project: The fellow will lead a funded project focused on developing and applying a novel dynamic fluorescent biosensor (FJ375) to evaluate redox homeostasis in T lymphocytes as a biomarker for acute cellular rejection (ACR) in heart transplant recipients.

The project will:

• Characterize the redox metabolic profile of T cell subsets (effector T cells and regulatory T cells) in transplant recipients.
• Assess the diagnostic performance of FJ375 for detecting acute cellular rejection, compared with current standards (donor-derived cell-free DNA and gene expression profiling).
• Determine the prognostic capacity of redox signatures for predicting persistent rejection.
• Explore the influence of immunosuppressive therapy on T cell redox balance through ex vivo assays.
• Integrate clinical, immunological, and computational analyses to identify molecular correlates of immune tolerance and risk of rejection.

This project involves both laboratory experiments (flow cytometry, cell culture, redox profiling) and computational modeling of clinical and omics data. The ultimate goal is to develop new biomarkers that improve rejection surveillance and guide personalized immunosuppression strategies in cardiac transplantation.
