Resident Alumni Day
[ 2007 | 2006 | 2005 | 2004 | 2003 ]

 
A day which combines and highlights some of the focal points of our program, including continuing research and our duty to serve as ambassadors for ophthalmology. This program brings together the residents’ clinical or basic science research, which is typically presented at the annual meeting of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO), acknowledges the various alumni who have trained in the residency, and brings to the forefront our continuing mission to serve. Full and part-time faculty participate by presenting ongoing research, speaking on a topic of interest, or serving as a reviewer of the resident research. The visiting keynote lecturers participate throughout the day and are our guests at the senior resident dinner which concludes the night by celebrating our graduating residents.
