David Stark

Trained in both neurology and biomedical data science, Dr. David Stark has made a career working on both ends of the healthcare spectrum: as a physician, working directly with patients, and as a bioinformatician, working with data to drive health research and new technology development. As creator and director of Lab100, David draws on this unique background to bridge the gap between patient, provider, researcher and innovator. David is Assistant Professor of Health System Design and Global Health and Medical Director of the Institute for Next Generation Healthcare at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Prior to Mount Sinai, David was a research fellow in the departments of medicine and bioengineering at Stanford University School of Medicine where he focused on developing data-driven tools for assessing neurological, psychiatric, developmental, and behavioral health. David received his B.S. in biology from Yale University, his M.D. from Harvard Medical School, and an M.S. in biomedical informatics from Stanford University. He is dual board certified in neurology with special qualification in child neurology and in clinical informatics. David's work has been published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) and the Journal of Neuroscience and featured in the New York Times, CNN, NPR, PBS, and Washington Post.
