ARVO 2011 Electronic Posters Available Online

By on May 2, 2011

There is a lot of innovative research being presented at the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) annual meeting here in Fort Lauderdale.

ARVO 2011 Poster Hall 300x225 ARVO 2011 Electronic Posters Available OnlineFor those unable to attend, a large number of poster presentations are now available online with free access.

Not all posters are being made available electronically, only a select few have been invited by the Program Committee, and not every presenter invited has made their poster available.

The online electronic posters will be added to over the next few days of the conference after they have been presented.  I am impressed that ARVO have made this information publicly available at no cost through June 30th.

What’s hot at ARVO 2011?

By on April 27, 2011

ARVO 2011 Visionary Genomics What’s hot at ARVO 2011? This weekend I will be at the annual meeting of The Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) in Fort Lauderdale.

I’m excited about attending because earlier in my career I worked at Alcon Laboratories on European IDE clinical trials for three novel intra-ocular lenses.

ARVO is the ophthalmology equivalent of AACR and is where scientists involved in drug, device research meet to discuss new findings and early stage research.

The title of meeting is “Visionary Genomics.”  After listening to the plenary session at the recent AACR annual meeting by Lynda Chin on how insights from cancer genomics are translating into personalized medicine, I’m looking forward to seeing the impact of genomics on vision research.
