Georgia Panagiotakos

Georgia Panagiotakos is a faculty member at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, leading the Panagiotakos Lab. Her research focuses on understanding the mechanistic role of electrical activity and calcium signaling in mammalian brain development, particularly in relation to neuropsychiatric disorders and brain tumors. The lab is dedicated to fostering a collaborative environment that emphasizes scientific rigor, mentorship, and teamwork.

Research Interests:

• Mechanistic dissection of brain development
• Role of ion channels and calcium signaling in neural progenitor differentiation
• Activity-regulated mechanisms in neuropsychiatric disorders
• Neurological implications of developmental reactivation in adults
• Stem cell biology in neural development and disease
