Jeremy Goldbogen
Associate Professor of Oceans
BioJeremy Goldbogen is an Associate Professor of Oceans at Stanford University, based at the Hopkins Marine Station in Pacific Grove, California. He is a comparative physiologist who studies the integrative biology of marine organisms, with a particular focus on the feeding biomechanics, energetics, and foraging ecology of baleen whales.
Goldbogen received his B.S. in Zoology from the University of Texas at Austin, where he began his research career studying the biomechanics of locomotion in hummingbirds and Antarctic pteropods. He earned his M.S. in Marine Biology from Scripps Institution of Oceanography and his Ph.D. in Zoology from the University of British Columbia, where his dissertation on the mechanics and energetics of rorqual lunge feeding earned him the Governor General's Gold Medal—UBC's most outstanding PhD award. Following postdoctoral positions at Scripps and the Cascadia Research Collective, he joined Stanford's faculty in 2014.
His research program uses cutting-edge bio-logging technology—animal-attached sensors including accelerometers, video cameras, and echosounders—to study the behavior and physiology of marine megafauna in their natural environment. His lab has made groundbreaking discoveries about whale feeding mechanics, cardiovascular function, and the ecological consequences of body size in cetaceans. Notable achievements include the first recordings of a blue whale's heart rate and insights into why whales are big but not bigger. -
Mark Golden
Director of Communication, Precourt Institute for Energy
BioWorking with the Precourt Institute's small communications team, my principal responsibility is to inform the public about energy research and education at Stanford through articles, press releases, social media, Stanford Energy newsletter, printed materials and presentations. I also aid reporters writing about energy. I began work at Stanford in 2011, when I joined the Precourt Institute's communications team as a writer.
Before coming to Stanford, I taught in the San Francisco public schools for several years. Previously, I was a reporter for Dow Jones & Co. for 10 years, primarily covering the U.S. natural gas and power industries. I also worked in Kiev, Ukraine in 1996-97, editing a weekly news magazine on that country's economic and political development. I also worked for Columbia University, writing on public health research. -
Neville H. Golden M.D.
Marron and Mary Elizabeth Kendrick Professor of Pediatrics, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research has focused on the medical complications of adolescents with eating disorders. My specific area of study has been the etiology and implications of amenorrhea in adolescents with eating disorders, in particular the management of reduced bone mass and osteoporosis in anorexia nervosa.
