The Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group

Jennifer Galvin, MD, sits down with the two co-chairs of the Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group (PEDIG)—Stacy Pineles, MD, and Katherine Weise, OD, MBA, FAAO—to discuss the current and future clinical studies in pediatric ophthalmology and optometry. Drs. Pineles and Weise outline the collaborative network of PEDIG, dedicated to facilitating multicenter clinical research in all areas of children’s eye conditions such as strabismus, amblyopia, and more. They further discuss how a trainee in medical school or residency could get involved in pediatric eye research.
