Angiogenesis in Atherosclerosis
We investigate the contribution of circulating monocyte subsets as a source of a new isoform of tissue factor with angiogenic activity to the growth of intimal neovessel in atherosclerosis as a potential mechanism of lesion instability culminating in the onset of ischemic cardiovascular events (i.e. stroke and myocardial infarction).
Immunity and Cardiovascular Disease
We study the contribution of inflammatory cells infiltrating the atherosclerotic arterial wall to the progression of the disease:  identification of the cellular and molecular immune interactions that occur in the atherosclerotic plaque

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

Mount Sinai's faculty policies relating to faculty collaboration with industry are posted on our website. Patients may wish to ask their physician about the activities they perform for companies.
