Members of the SUNY Eye Institute (SEI) have the opportunity to view seminars that are web cast from the member institutions to all of the SEI members. Notice of the seminars is sent to members via the SEI ListServe. If an SEI member is unable to view the web cast live, that member can login using their SEI member credentials to view the archived talks through the members' only portion of the SEI web site.
Below is an alphabetic list of some of the speakers and their presentations that have been web cast to the SEI membership.
