Neomi Shah, MD, MPH, MSC, is an Associate Professor, in the Department of Medicine, Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine. Dr. Shah is board-certified in Internal Medicine, Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine. She completed her clinical and research fellowship in Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep at Yale University School of Medicine. During her fellowship, she also earned a Master’s in Public Health from the Yale School of Public Health and received the Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award. Dr. Shah’s post-doctoral research identified sleep apnea as a risk factor for coronary artery disease related events. She seeks to elucidate the complex relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and coronary artery disease, especially in the setting of an acute myocardial infarction. After completing fellowship, Dr. Shah was a faculty member at Albert Einstein College of Medicine/Montefiore prior to joining Mount Sinai. Dr. Shah has received two grant awards from the American Sleep Medicine Foundation (2009, 2011) and an institutional CTSA KL-2 Career Development Award (2012-2015). Dr. Shah is the Principal Investigator of an NIH funded K-23 award. She leads a multidisciplinary translational study that investigates the effect of sleep apnea on severity and prognosis of myocardial infarction through an integrated assessment of: (1) quantification of myocardial infarct size using cardiac imaging, (2) coronary collateral scoring and (3) biomarkers of hypoxic stress. In addition to the K-23, Dr. Shah also recently received a Focused Projects Award from the American Sleep Medicine Foundation where she plans to measure “Coronary Plaque Activity Using Cardiac Gated PET-CT with 18F-NaF in Individuals With and Without Sleep Apnea”.
