The Institute for Genomic Health (IGH) at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is a multidisciplinary research institute dedicated to advancing genomic discovery and translating emerging genomic technologies into clinical care. IGH leads and participates in large-scale, NIH-funded clinical and translational research programs that integrate genomics, electronic health records, biobanks, and community-engaged research to improve health outcomes and promote equity in genomic medicine.

The Clinical Research Coordinator will support a portfolio of IGH clinical and translational research studies, with primary responsibility for activities related to the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium (HPRC). This role will work closely with investigators, research staff, clinical teams, and institutional partners to support participant-facing research activities, regulatory compliance, data and biospecimen coordination, and day-to-day study operations.

HPRC is a National Institutes of Health–funded research consortium working to develop a next-generation human reference genome that more accurately reflects global human genetic diversity. The pangenome integrates high-quality genome assemblies from individuals representing diverse genomic ancestral backgrounds. This resource is expected to improve variant discovery, interpretation, and equity in genomic research and clinical care.

As an HPRC recruitment and research site, IGH leads participant engagement, consent, biospecimen collection, and data contribution efforts, often in partnership with Mount Sinai’s Bio Me Biobank. The Clinical Research Coordinator will play a central role in supporting these activities and ensuring that study procedures are conducted in accordance with IRB requirements, NIH policies, and consortium protocols.
