Michael S. Goligorsky, M.D., Ph.D.
Michael S. Goligorsky, M.D., Ph.D., holds the Alvin I. Goodman Chair in Nephrology. After completing residency and fellowship, Dr. Goligorsky joined the faculty of the State University of New York at Stony Brook (1988). He became professor of medicine and physiology in 1997 and named an honorary professor at the University College London (1998). In 2002, he was recruited by New York Medical College to inaugurate the Renal Research Institute. In 1991, Dr. Goligorsky was elected to the American Society of Clinical Investigations. In 2002, he was elected to the American Association of Physicians. Dr. Goligorsky serves as an associate editor for the American Journal of Pathology and the American Journal of Physiology: Cell, and topic editor for Nephrology, Dialysis and Transplantation. He is the editor of Regenerative Nephrology (2011).

Research
Dr. Goligorsky's research interests include: the mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction as a harbinger of atherosclerotic, diabetic, and hypertensive vascular damage; stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS) of endothelial cells and the role of lysosomal dysfunction in this process; mechanisms of functional incompetence of endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) in chronic kidney disease; mechanisms of Alarm Signaling by an ischemic organ; and proteomic analysis of the urine in kidney disease.
