Dr. Jerry Goldstein is a Staff Scientist at the Southwest Research Institute, and an Adjoint Professor of Physics at the University of Texas San Antonio. Goldstein got his Ph.D at Dartmouth College, where he studied the theory of cavity resonances of the Earth’s magnetosphere, under the guidance of Mary Hudson. At the Southwest Research Institute (since 2003), Dr. Goldstein specializes in the dynamics of inner magnetospheres using global imaging observations from missions such as IMAGE and TWINS, complemented by theory and simulation. Dr. Goldstein is the Science Operations Center lead (2003-present) for the TWINS mission. He is a Fellow of the AGU and received the James B. Macelwane medal “for significant contributions to the geophysical sciences by a young scientist of outstanding ability” in 2006. He has served on multiple NASA and NSF review panels including the Solar-Wind-Magnetosphere interaction panel for the Decadal Survey and as Associate Editor of the Journal of Geophysical Research, Space Physics. Dr. Goldstein is author or co-author of ~100 published papers, with over 1700 citations and an h index of 23.
