The Vision and Ophthalmology Interest Group

Our group serves to increase awareness of the field of ophthalmology and vision research. We provide information to interested medical students on ongoing ophthalmology events, opportunities, and courses.  And to complement these departmental resources, we organize events for students. These activities include student-faculty networking events, Q&A sessions on aspects of the ophthalmology residency application process, engaging lectures on emerging medical, scientific, and political issues in the field, and opportunities for research, shadowing, and volunteering in the community.

UCSF is committed to building a community and nurturing a culture that is welcoming and supportive, and engaging ideas for the provision of culturally competent education, discovery, and patient care. We in the Department of Ophthalmology fully espouse those values and strive to create a supportive educational community which allows each of our learners to reach his or her learning potential.
 

UCSF is committed to welcoming and serving all people, honoring the dignity of every individual without preference or prejudice, in support of its public mission and in alignment with our PRIDE values and Principles of Community. https://opportunity.ucsf.edu/about/pride-values
