This initiative to raise awareness, starting with young, is a virtual program presented by Dr. Jose Quiroz, one of the three most recent recipients of the TGF (Sponsored by Patricia Hill)-RBP Fellowship in Glaucoma and Research Fellow at New York Eye and Ear- Mount Sinai. We are grateful to Ms. Hill for her sponsorship, Dr. Quiroz for his advocacy and expertise, and the STEM Institute at CCNY for helping us reach several hundred middle and high school students and their parents representing communities (northern Harlem, Washington Heights, and Inwood) with high African American and Hispanic heritage – communities at high risk for glaucoma.
