Dr. Michael E.  (Mickey) Goldberg is David Mahoney Professor of Brain and Behavior in the Departments of Neuroscience, Neurology, Psychiatry, and Ophthalmology at the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons.  He graduated from Harvard College in Biochemical Sciences (1963), and Harvard Medical School (1968), and did a medical internship at the Harvard Peter Bent Brigham Hospital.  He did a postdoctoral fellowship at the NIMH (1969-1972 ) and a residency in neurology at the Harvard Longwood Program (1972-1975). He was a founding member of the Laboratory of Sensorimotor Research at the National Eye Institute.  He moved to Columbia University in 2001.  In his research, he uses vision and eye movements to explore the physiology of cognitive processes such as visual attention and spatial perception.  More recently he has begun to study the physiology of cognitive, non-motor processes in the cerebellum.  He still practices clinical neurology as a neurohospitalist at the Columbia University Medical Center. He is a past president of the Society for Neuroscience, a member of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States, and a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.  Among many honors he was awarded the Patricia Goldman-Rakic prize for Cognitive Neuroscience in 2011 and the Lewis P. Rowland Award for Clinical Teaching in the Department of Neurology at Columbia University in 2006.
