We are deeply saddened by the loss of one of our lab members Samuel Weinreb. Sam was one of the most kind-hearted, smart, and hard-working individuals that we have ever known. He wanted to be a 'Surgeoneer'. Our prayers are with his grieving family and all who loved and mourn him.

Today's children could be tomorrow's vision scientists. Dr. Dagnelie at the Rodgers Forge Elementary School talking to first graders on 'Differences Day' about the many faces of blindness from a rehabilitation perspective. The audience enjoyed learning about low vision devices and how they could help someone they know with low vision.
