Here's what's happening in eye research.


UCLA Stein Eye & Doheny Eye Institutes Distinguished Lecture & Research Seminar Series 

The UCLA Stein Eye Institute Seminar Series holds Research Seminars and Distinguished Lectures on basic research, translational medical sciences, and clinical advancements in the field of Ophthalmology.

Research Seminars are given by our researchers on a weekly basis to learn about the research interests of our faculty and the work being done in their labs.  During the academic year, we will host a few Distinguished Lectures given by invited outside speakers recognized as pioneers in their respective field.

Unless noted otherwise, all seminars in the 2023-2024 year will be held at noon on Fridays in person in the RBP Auditorium at the UCLA Stein Eye Institute.

You can add lectures and seminars to your personal calendar by selecting the appropriate date in the google calendar. Please note that the calendar includes the Distinguished Lectures to be hosted by Doheny Eye Institute at the new Pasadena location, 150 North Orange Grove Blvd.
