ICARUS IBD

ICARUS IBD is a specialized laboratory within the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai dedicated to research that moves faster than standard timelines. Its precise location at One Gustave L. Levy Place puts it in the thick of academic and clinical work happening just above East Harlem. Basic and applied projects often share the same corridor, creating an unusual mix of pure exploration and disease-focused inquiry.

The building itself fronts Park Avenue and sits near the 96th Street transverse, where the Upper East Side gives way to Harlem’s academic pulse. Inside, ICARUS IBD operates test-by-test, not walk-in, aligning with Mount Sinai’s approach to tightly controlled investigations. This isn’t a space for routine tests—it’s built for loops of advanced experiments that loop back into patient care somewhere else.

When a call needs answering, the lab directs to its main line. Reach the front desk at the number answered during standard hours and leave a message if needed. They’ll ring back once bench work clears enough for phone time.

Quickest path in is to drop the address into a map—follow the walking path up to the tower entrance.
