Jeffrey A. Golden is chair of the Department of Pathology at BWH and the Ramzi Cotran Professor of Pathology at HMS. Dr. Golden’s research focuses on elucidating the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying differentiation and migration of neurons in the mammalian forebrain. Dr. Golden uses a combination of mouse genetics, in vivo and in vitro models, and molecular and cellular biology methodologies to study the migration and differentiation of cortical neurons. This work is aimed at understanding the molecular pathogenesis of neurocognitive disorders such as epilepsy, intellectual disabilities, and autism. Beyond his work, Dr. Golden has served as a national and international leader. He sits on many editorial boards and is associate editor of the Journal of Neuropathology and Experimental Neurology. At BWH, he chairs the Board of Trustees for the Physicians Organization.

Originally from Seoul, Korea, Henry came to the United States and attended Indiana University, where he earned a MS in informatics.
