The Mount Sinai Hospital

Mount Sinai’s Department of Rehabilitation and Human Performance has opened the Cohen Center for Recovery From Complex Chronic Illnesses (CoRE), dedicated to treating patients with conditions such as long Lyme disease/Lyme+, long COVID, myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS). Supported by philanthropy from various donors, including an inaugural gift from Beth and Joshua Nash and a naming gift from the Steven & Alexandra Cohen Foundation, the $10-million Center is located at The Mount Sinai Hospital. The state-of-the-art facility is designed to accommodate up to 700 new patients annually. Additionally, the center will initiate research programs to explore the similarities and differences among patients with these conditions, aiding in the development of novel therapies. #WeFindAWay

Michael Allen, 72, a grandfather from Queens, views tennis as more than just a game—it’s a way of life. He was playing every day when one sunny October day last year he nearly died after going into sudden cardiac arrest on the court. He was rushed into emergency heart surgery and is now back on the court —thanks to Jonathan Murphy, MD, an interventional cardiologist at Mount Sinai Queens, and Ahmed El-Eshmawi, MBChB, a cardiovascular surgeon at The Mount Sinai Hospital. He was excited to visit the US Open to celebrate his survival. “If I hadn’t been able to come back out, I’m not sure I would have wanted to live,” he tells CBS News while standing on the court in Astoria Park beside the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge. “To me, this is heaven.” As the Official Hospital of the #USOpen, Mount Sinai Health System is proud to stand behind champions like Michael, both on and off the court.

Dr. Manish Arora sits down with Dr. Itai Kloog as he explains how science is now turning to human hair to unravel the mysteries of environmental exposures. Easier to collect than blood, each strand tells a unique story, much like the rings of a tree trunk. This innovative approach offers a fascinating glimpse into our interactions with the world around us. #WeFindAWay #AspenIdeas #AspenIdeasHealth #exposomics #exposomes #environmentalhealth

Dr. Itai Kloog shares with Dr. Manish Arora the investigation of various contaminants and their impact on human health, focusing on physical, social, chemical, and biological exposures. As an example, Dr. Kloog mentions the differences between sandstorms from Egypt, which carry smelters and toxins, and those from Saudi Arabia, which are natural and less harmful. #WeFindAWay #AspenIdeas #AspenIdeasHealth #exposomics #exposomes #environmentalhealth
