Panos Roussos, MD, PhD, is the Endowed Chair for Translational Psychiatry and a Professor of Psychiatry, Genetics, and Genomic Sciences at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where he serves as Director of the Center for Disease Neurogenomics. He is also the Director of the Center for Precision Medicine and Translational Therapeutics at the James J. Peters VA Medical Center. Dr. Roussos received his medical and doctoral training at the University of Crete and completed his psychiatric residency and research training at Mount Sinai. Dr. Roussos’s research focuses on understanding the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, Alzheimer’s disease, and related conditions. His work integrates large-scale human genetics with multi-omics data to identify how genetic risk variants influence brain cell types, gene regulatory networks, and disease-relevant biological pathways. A central goal of his research is to advance precision psychiatry by moving from genetic discovery to biological mechanism and therapeutic insight. He leads and contributes to multiple national and international consortia, developing analytical frameworks and shared resources that enable systematic investigation of disease biology in the human brain. Dr. Roussos is also committed to mentorship and training, with a strong track record of supporting students, postdoctoral fellows, and early career investigators.
