Personal Statement

I am an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medicine / New York-Presbyterian Hospital. I have special interests in treating patients using both psychopharmacology and insight-oriented psychotherapeutic techniques, as well as in collaborative team models of care. I also am interested in research that bridges clinical neuroscience, neuromodulation, and novel psychiatric interventions to help individualize and optimize care. 

Biographical Info

Dr. Eric Goldwaser, D.O., Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medicine / New York-Presbyterian Hospital. He completed a Medical-Scientist Training Program at Rowan University School of Osteopathic Medicine (then UMDNJ), where his research focused on the blood-brain barrier and vascular implications of neurodegenerative diseases in pre-clinical models. He completed his psychiatry residency training at University of Maryland / Sheppard Pratt as part of the Physician-Scientist Training Program, where he bridged clinical neuroscience research in MRI and vascular imaging modalities to study the blood-brain barrier in psychiatric conditions. His clinical training included psychopharmacology, various insight-oriented psychotherapeutic techniques, and novel psychiatric interventions, like brain stimulation and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy. As faculty, Dr. Goldwaser continues his research in the neurovascular processes in health and disease states that govern behavior and treatment.
