About Maria Golson
Primary Academic Title
Assistant Professor of Medicine
Background
Dr. Maria Golson joined the Division of Endocrinology, Obesity and Metabolism in 2020. Her primary research interest is the intrinsic and extrinsic regulation of beta-cell function and insulin secretion.
Dr. Golson received her B.S. in Biology with a concentration in Genetics from Duke University. She then pursued her Ph.D. in Cell and Molecular Biology with a concentration in Genetics and Gene Regulation at the University of Pennsylvania. She completed her postdoctoral training at Vanderbilt University before starting her faculty career as a Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Genetics at the University of Pennsylvania.
