Ophthalmology for All: Building More Inclusive Spaces

Jennifer Galvin, MD, and medical student Nadia Abbas invite Dolly Ann Padovani-Claudio, MD, PhD, and Ore-Ofe Adesina, MD, to discuss diversity, equity, and inclusion and underrepresented individuals in medicine—specifically as it relates to pediatric ophthalmology and neuro-ophthalmology. Drs. Padovani-Claudio and Adesina share their experiences and advice for ophthalmic trainees from underrepresented backgrounds, reviewing strategies to navigate challenges, find a niche in the field, and excel in patient care.
