Biography

[edit]

Taub was born and raised in New York City.[2] He received his A.B. degree in biology at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island in 1989 and received his M.D. with honors for research in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City in 1993.[2] His postdoctoral training included an internship and subsequent residency in general surgery at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, a residency in plastic and reconstructive surgery, and a fellowship in craniofacial surgery, at the U.C.L.A. School of Medicine in Los Angeles.[3]

Taub's research concentrates on craniofacial anomalies[4][5] and the mechanisms of tendon healing, as well as an examination of the worldwide database of cleft surgery.

At the Mount Sinai Medical Center, he serves as the program director for the Plastic Surgery Residency Training Program and as the Medical Director for the Ambulatory Surgery Center. He also serves on the Boards of the Northeastern Society of Plastic Surgery[6] the New York Regional Society of Plastic Surgery, as well as the Plastic Surgery Research Council.[7][8][9] Internationally, Taub is an operating member of the Board of Directors of KomedyPlast, a not-for-profit organization that offers surgery for children with craniofacial anomalies.

Taub is currently a reviewer for 6 journals, including Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Annals of Plastic Surgery, Cleft Palate/Craniofacial Journal, Tissue Engineering, Journal of Pediatric Surgery and Pediatrics, as well as the associate editor, Head and Neck section, of the Annals of Plastic Surgery.
