Pushing beyond the forefronts of science through collaboration.
|
Mission:
To integrate the complementary strengths of the four SUNY Medical Universities and SUNY Optometry into a single SUNY Eye Institute (SEI) in order to enhance research and training in clinical and basic visual sciences in New York State.
Goals are to:
- develop pre- and post-doctoral training programs in eye and vision research across the five schools;
- recruit basic and clinical investigators into eye and vision research;
- promote and foster collaborative research interactions among vision scientists across the schools; and
- establish state-of-the-art eye research core facilities at each of the campuses to serve and augment the capabilities of all five schools.
