Discoveries

Researchers at the Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute of Mount Sinai Hospital continue to push the boundaries of discovery, and in turn bring new insights from the laboratory bench to the patients’ bedside, helping to create The Best Medicine.

We are incredibly proud of the accomplishments of so many Lunenfeld investigators and trainees over the past year.

Here are just a few examples:

• Mount Sinai research leads to earlier detection of preeclampsia
     
• Leading-edge research into DNA damage and repair furthers understanding of cancer
    
• New, once-weekly treatment for type 2 diabetes may replace twice-daily injection
   
• Mount Sinai team develops new method to create stem cells, opening door to regenerative medicines
   
• Innovative computational tool analyzes breast cancer tumours to determine patients' best treatment options
    
• Discovery of new genetic links to rheumatoid arthritis will help lead to personalized therapies
