McGill.CA / Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences / Simulation

Research teams and projects

The Ocular Simulation Laboratory hosts a wide variety of interdisciplinary research teams, with backgrounds in ophthalmology, engineering, medicine, and more. Our members include medicine students, residents, fellows, staff, and surgeons, as well as undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate students from various programs across McGill University... Although our collaborators are sometimes from abroad!
