About The Position

The Mount Sinai Health System is recruiting an inspiring, dynamic, clinician-educator leader to join our current team of seven neurointensivists. The Division of Neurocritical Care oversees two Neurosciences ICUs and cares for a wide range of neurologically injured patients. The Mount Sinai Hospital NSICU is a state of the art 16-bed unit with a focus on complex neurovascular and skull base surgeries. A major renovation of our Upper East Side campus is underway scheduled to be completed in 2028. This will see the NSICU footprint expand from 16 to 23 beds with a focus on integrating technologies meaningfully for patient and family centered care, a state-of-the-art conference room and private facilities for family members. The NSICU located at Mount Sinai West is a 14-bed ICU with a special focus on the management of ICH, epilepsy, and movement disorders. In addition to ICU care, the neurocritical care team oversees the management and transfer of over 1000 neurologic emergency cases per year across our health system. The division boasts a dually accredited neurocritical care fellowship program and has educational and research conferences fully integrated between campuses. Our robust research program spanning NIH and industry sponsored multicenter clinical trials, investigator-initiated studies, the Dangayach (Neuroemergencies Management and Transfers) NEMAT lab are supported by research infrastructure via the Department of Neurosurgery and Institute of Critical Care Medicine (ICCM). Over the next decade, the neurocritical care team is poised to expand into other Mount Sinai system hospitals and seeks a promising faculty member to grow their career with us.
