Dr. Tony Goldberg is Professor of Epidemiology at the University of Wisconsin Madison School of Veterinary Medicine, John D. MacArthur Research Chair at UW-Madison, and Associate Director for Research at the UW-Madison Global Health Institute. He received his B.A. from Amherst College (1990, Biology and English), his Ph.D. from Harvard University (1996, Biological Anthropology), and his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and MS in Epidemiology from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2000).

Dr. Goldberg studies the ecology and epidemiology of fish disease. His research combines field and laboratory methods to understand how diseases are spread among aquatic and marine organisms in nature, and how we can intervene to help keep fisheries healthy. Dr. Goldberg maintains projects on bonefish health in the Caribbean, health and disease in freshwater sport fishes in the Midwestern USA, and disease-related causes of population declines in freshwater bivalves around the world. The overall goal of his research is to help preserve the health and sustainability fish and fisheries in the rapidly changing world in which we live.
