Goldman, Steven A.
STEVEN A. GOLDMAN is a stem cell researcher at the University of Rochester. He was previously at Cornell in the Division of Cell and Gene Therapy as the chief of the division. He also held the Glenn—Zutes Chair in Biology of the Aging Brain and was a professor of neurology, neurosurgery, and pediatrics. Goldman graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor's degree in biology and psychology from the University of Pennsylvania in 1978. In 1983 he completed a medical degree at Cornell University Medical College. However, instead of entering medical practice, he undertook studies for a doctoral degree. He completed his second doctorate in cellular neurobiology at Rockefeller University in 1984.
After completing his formal education, Goldman began the practice of medicine with a residency at the Cornell Medical Center in New York Hospital and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in Medicine from 1984 to 1985. He then did a second residency in neurology from 1985 to 1988 and was chief resident in neurology from 1987 to 1988. Earning degrees has allowed Goldman to become certified as a physician. He is certified as a diplomate by the National Board of Medical Examiners (1985), with medical licensure by the State of New York (1985), and as a neurologist by the Board of Certification in Neurology, American Academy of Neurology and Psychiatry (1989). Goldman has many NIH grants and has been awarded a number of honors during his productive career.
Career and Honors
Goldman's career has been a series of upwardly mobile places of service in neurology. From 1988 to 1992, he was an assistant professor of neurology and an assistant attending neurologist at the New York Hospital—Cornell University Medical Center. From 1992 until 1997, he served as associate professor of neurology and neuroscience at the New York Hospital—Cornell University Medical Center. In 1997 he was granted tenure as associate professor of neurology and neuroscience at the New York Hospital—Cornell University Medical Center. Goldman has a unique combination of both clinical and scientific skills that has kept him at the front of biomédical research in the stem cell field for many years.
From 1997 until 2001, Goldman served as professor of neurology and neuroscience at Cornell University Medical College. In addition, he was senior attending neurologist at New York Presbyterian Hospital. From 2001 until 2003, he was Nathan Cummings Professor of Neurology and Neuroscience at Cornell University Medical College. From 2003 until this writing, he has been adjunct professor of neurology at the Weill Medical College of Cornell University.
Goldman has been the recipient of many awards and fellowships. He was a Benjamin Franklin National Scholar, University of Pennsylvania, 1974–78; a Senatorial Scholar, State of Pennsylvania, 1974–78, and a Mayor's Scholar, City of Philadelphia, 1974–78. He was elected into Phi Beta Kappa at the University of Pennsylvania (1977) and was a Medical Scientist Training Program trainee, U.S. Public Health Service (1978–84), a Grass Foundation Fellowship winner (1978), and a Cornell Scholar in Biomédical Science (1988–91). He was given a clinical investigator development award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH)/National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) for two years (1988–93), a FIRST Award from the NIH/NINDS for five years (1992–97), an Irma T. Hirschl Career Scientist Award for four years (1993–97), and a Jacob Javits Neuroscience Investigator Award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders for seven years (2002–09).
