Edward J. Ronan Mount Sinai Medical Student Distinguished Teacher Award

Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device and biotechnology companies 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 relationships with such companies.

Below are financial relationships with industry reported by Dr. Thomas during 2022 and/or 2023. Please note that this information may differ from information posted on corporate sites due to timing or classification differences.

Consulting:

  • Focus on Healthy Aging

Industry-Sponsored Lectures: MSSM faculty occasionally give lectures at events sponsored by industry, but only if the events are free of any marketing purpose

  • Association for Medical Education in Europe (AMEE)

Other activities: Examples include, but are not limited to, committee participation, data safety monitoring board (DSMB) membership

  • 136 St Block Association
  • Focus on Healthy Aging

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.
