Barry I. Gold

I am a pharmacologist with a BS in zoology from the University of Cincinnati and a PhD in pharmacology from Boston University. I was a postdoctoral fellow at Yale and a faculty member at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, USUHS. I have two adult children from a previous marriage. I was a single parent for ten years after that divorce and I've since remarried and we are the proud parents of a 3-year-old old baby boy. We live in Putnam County, New York.

I write daily and my piece, "New Shoes," which was released last year in an anthology, "Warren Adler Short Story Contest Winners," available from Stonehouse Press and as an e-publication. My novel "Operation Independence Day" is available from Amazon for Kindle, iBooks, Sony, Barnes & Noble and others, and I welcome feedback from readers.

My next project is a book on stem cells that I call "The New Life Force." I blog on the subject at: stemcellwriter.blogspot.com
