Today’s Grand Rounds brought together Buckeyes past and present for an engaging and collaborative session. We were pleased to welcome back College of Medicine alumna Lindsey DeLott, MD, a board-certified neurologist and neuro-ophthalmologist at the University of Michigan, as the Rogers Bremer Lecture speaker.

The lecture was made possible through the Rogers Bremer Lecture Fund at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, whose team also coordinated the visit. We were additionally glad to host our colleagues from Nationwide Children’s Hospital Ophthalmology, making for a meaningful exchange of ideas and connection across institutions.

Global outreach in action - hello from the Dominican Republic! ✈️👁️

Our ophthalmology team is on the ground and already making an impact. Drs. Matthew Ohr, William Bloom (PGY3), and Robert Chambers (alumnus '85) arrived in the Dominican Republic yesterday for a global outreach trip focused on education, collaboration, and advancing eye care.

From Dr. Ohr’s lecture to time spent connecting with local residents and trainees, this trip reflects our shared commitment to improving vision care far beyond our own community. Following Drs. Christine Martinez and Maddie Hecker’s (PGY3) outreach trip to the Dominican Republic just last month, we’re proud to continue building these meaningful global partnerships and expanding access to expert eye care.
