In the last episode, we began conversations with Drs. Dolly Ann Padovani Claudio, O’Rese Knight, and Lisa Kelly about the work they’re doing as the directors of the Rabb Venable excellence in research program’s Pathways to Success Program and the AUPO/AAO Minority Ophthalmology Mentoring Program.
In this episode, we continue our conversations about these program’s efforts, including more on the DEI backlash and how to address the the social and legal climate that threatens to undermine the gains that have been made to improve diversity in the field of ophthalmology.
At the end of our conversations, I ask my guests what they see as the way forward and the future plans for they have for their programs to continue the good hard work of increasing diversity, equity, and inclusion in the field of ophthalmology.
