This year, Mayo Clinic Ophthalmology launched a new global ophthalmology and health equities track that thoughtfully prepares residents for local and international experiences. Combining didactics, online courses, surgical experience and fieldwork, residents cover a variety of topics including social justice, advocacy, inclusion, epidemiology and social determinants of health. The track also includes volunteer requirements within the local area, and an international experience. "The global ophthalmology track helps residents understand health disparities — not only worldwide but also within the United States," says Dr. Ashlie Bernhisel, an ophthalmologist at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, and an assistant professor of ophthalmology at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine. "In addition to its academic benefits, it teaches important life skills and provides experiences that can contribute to a more compassionate, well-rounded resident and future ophthalmologist."
