Dr. Michael Boland of Mass Eye and Ear, and #IowaEye alumnus (05R), presented at today's morning rounds with his talk, "Epic and #Ophthalmology: The girl with kaleidoscope eyes". Thank you for joining us, Dr. Boland!

I have always thought that our artificial neurons used in neural networks did not do justice to actual neurons. This work suggests just how far off we are: tinyurl.com/2hp4jtup #AI #NeuralNetworks

A message from Stewie and Brian:

Important lessons from recent and distant history of #AI that we should all be keeping in mind as we apply it to eye care (data/algorithm sharing, bias, regulation, hype): hsph.harvard.edu/magazine/magaz…

Highly recommend reading/listening to "The Hospital" by @BrianRAlexander. It is a compelling overview of the deficiencies in American health(care) told via stories from a small hospital in Ohio. For my eye care friends, it even includes vitrectomies and a trip to U-M Kellogg Eye Center.

Interesting typo or mis-reading of someone's handwriting involved in this reason for visit tomorrow (clearly not from the glaucoma service 😉)

I always wonder about the prior doc's refractive error when I find the oculars set like this at the start of my day...

Great to be back for #IowaEye2022 at UIowa Eye where this year we had an overdue gathering to celebrate the career of Lee Alward and a visit from alum Dr. Glaucomflecken.

Trainees, don't become this guy/gal. The trash can is just to your right 😉

For medical students and residents considering applying to Mass Eye and Ear and Harvard Ophthalmology later this year, note this can be your view from the cheap seats at Fenway Park!

Enjoying my first @NEOS_Eyes meeting. Note meeting number which, even at ~5 meetings per year takes a LONG time. Also a great walk to the meeting venue through Public Garden.

Just saw this and thought it seemed like an alternative to a simulator for those who want to transition to phaco chop 😉 youtu.be/SaEHuDsSVog
