Biography

Born in Berlin, Germany, Dr. Andreas Keiling was an undergraduate student at Imperial College, London, before moving to the University of Minnesota, where he completed his Ph.D. in 2001. Following a two-year postdoctoral position at Paul Sabatier University in Toulouse, France, he moved to the Space Sciences Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley in 2004, where he currently works as a Research Physicist. Dr. Keiling has also taught at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls and the University of Maryland-University College, and was a visiting researcher at institutions in Japan and Korea. He has published on a broad range of topics within space physics, including two comprehensive review articles, and he has been the editor of four scientific books.
