  • Summary

  • "Bench to Boardroom" is on the road! This week, we are in Seattle at the annual Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) meeting to see some amazing research, catch up with some old friends, and network and make some new ones! Today's conversation is with our friends at the BrightFocus Foundation, Drs. Diane Bovenkamp and Preeti Subramanaian. We talk about the importance of conference travel for young researchers, this week's events that the foundation is sponsoring, and upcoming deadlines for their Macular Degeneration and Glaucoma grants.

    The BrightFocus Foundation has awarded nearly $300 million to fund groundbreaking research to help make diseases of the eye and brain a thing of the past. Postdoctoral fellows within 4 years of graduation and New Investigators who are within 10 years of graduation are welcome to apply - even those who already work in industry or other for-profit institutions! This allows opportunities for those pre- and post-grad to pursue their ambitions beyond the traditional paths. Check out their website to learn more about their grant opportunities, deadlines, research they've funded, and how you can contribute. https://www.brightfocus.org/
