The Department of Ophthalmology’s first annual Stuart and Ellie Fine Resident Research Day marks a significant moment in our commitment to fostering a culture of research and clinical excellence amongst our trainees. This event is designed to bring together faculty, residents, and fellows for a focused session of research and sharing.
This strategic pause in Scheie’s daily clinical activities reflects our community’s dedication to advancing medical research and education—a demonstration of our belief in the power of collaborative learning and the importance of supporting our residents, who are at the forefront of exploring innovative solutions and advancements in eye care.
At the inaugural Stuart and Ellie Fine Resident Research Day, faculty and residents prepared a series of talks that showcased a diverse range of critical topics in ophthalmology. Established in 2024, this tradition is a celebration of our department's ongoing journey toward excellence in research, innovation, and community at Scheie—celebrating the dedication of our residents as they annually present their research and contribute to the field’s future.
