Our Marblehead Bank team joined the "The World Needs You Here Walk" around Salem Common, hosted by our friends at Mental Makeover. We were so proud to help raise awareness and smash the stigma around mental health. We did take a quick water break to snag a sweet team photo by the beach. Thanks to the Marblehead Sport Shop for our awesome new shirts!

Traditional methods remained viable with or without the procedure, according to an analysis of IRIS data. Also, kids up to age 12 showed a benefit.

“While we do not advocate performing strabismus surgery on patients with amblyopia without first attempting amblyopia treatment, we believe that surgery should not be indefinitely delayed,” the study authors wrote in their Ophthalmology paper.

Rest in Peace Raj. You were one of the best! My condolences to your family. 💐

It is with great sadness that we share the passing of Dr. Srinivas (Raj) Natrajan (OD ’84) earlier this week in Tucson, AZ.

Dr. Natrajan began his remarkable journey at NECO in 1969 as an Assistant Professor of Physiology. Over the years, he progressed to become an Associate Professor of Physiology and Pharmacology in 1974 and was promoted to Full Professor in 1985, a testament to his dedication and expertise.

Dr. Natrajan’s academic achievements were extraordinary. He earned a PhD in Nutrition from Virginia Polytechnic Institute in 1969, a Masters in Animal Nutrition from Auburn University in 1965, and an MS in Pharmacology from the Massachusetts College of Optometry in 1974.

After 30 years of committed service, Dr. Natrajan retired in 1999. His contributions were honored with the Alumni of the Year Award, and the faculty passed a resolution recognizing his profound impact. The resolution noted: “Dr. Natrajan has had an influential role within this institution as a distinguished educator in areas throughout the Bioscience curriculum. He has contributed to the reputation of the New England College of Optometry by his activity in optometry and continuing education, both nationally and internationally.”

Dr. Natrajan’s legacy will continue to inspire generations of students and colleagues at NECO.

Rotarian Linda Sullivan relished the dozens of grocery bags donated to support our local food pantries. With consumer prices increasing steadily, it has not been easy for many individuals and families. Donating to food pantries is an essential and straightforward way to assist our community’s locals experiencing financial difficulties - it has a direct and immediate impact. Throughout August, Rotarians will support our local food banks by bringing bags of nutritious canned goods or monetary donations. If you want to donate, email Linda Sullivan at linda.sull@verizon.net for a list of needed food items, and she will gladly pick up your donation.
