White Laboratory

About Us

The White Laboratory is a virology lab located in the Microbiology department of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Our goal as a laboratory and as a member of ISMMS community is to perform research that furthers the public’s understanding of common disease causing pathogens and, allows for the a better determination on the effectiviness of prospective therapies.
