About Dr. Marta Filizola

Dr. Marta Filizola is the Sharon & Frederick A. Klingenstein-Nathan G. Kase, MD Professor in the Departments of Pharmacological Sciences, Neuroscience, and Artificial Intelligence and Human Health, as well as the Dean of The Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, in New York, USA. The overall goal of her research program is to obtain rigorous mechanistic insights into the structure, dynamics, and function of important classes of membrane proteins and prominent drug targets, including G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), transporters, channels, and 3 integrins. To this end, her lab uses several computational structural biology tools and rational drug design approaches, ranging from molecular modeling, bioinformatics, cheminformatics, molecular dynamics simulations, free-energy perturbations, machine learning, etc. A native of Italy, she received her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Chemistry from the University Federico II in Naples. She pursued a Ph.D. in Computational Chemistry at the Second University of Naples and a postdoctorate in Computational Biophysics at the Molecular Research Institute in California, USA.
