SIG Highlight: Ophthalmology Student Interest Group
Advised by ophthalmologists Brian Kim, M.D., and Elizabeth Houle, M.D., the Ophthalmology Student Interest Group (SIG) introduces medical students to a specialty they don’t usually experience until Clerkships. SIG co-leaders Purvi Shah ’20, Nate Benner ’20, and Kinjal Thakor ’20 aim to spark interest in the subspecialty by bringing together medical students and ophthalmology residents and attending physicians, who, Shah says “absolutely love teaching medical students,” for a series of clinics and panels. On October 23, the SIG hosted one of three annual events – a Slit Lamp Exam Clinic – at the UVM Medical Center. Read about the clinic >>
