50 Studies Every Ophthalmologist Should Know

Langbeschreibung
50 Studies Every Ophthalmologist Should Know presents key studies that have shaped the practice of ophthalmology. Selected using a rigorous methodology, emphasis has been placed on landmark studies which have influenced current ophthalmology practice guidelines. For each study, a concise summary is presented with an emphasis on the results and limitations of the study, and its implications for practice. An illustrative clinical case concludes each review, followed by brief information on other relevant studies. This book is a must-read for ophthalmologists, especially those in training or preparing for board review, as well as anyone who wants to learn more about the data behind clinical practice.

Dr. Alan Penman is a physician with specialty training in ophthalmology, public health, epidemiology, and biostatistics. He graduated MBChB from Aberdeen University Medical School, Scotland in 1979, and received an MSc in Clinical Tropical Medicine from London University, England in 1981, an MPH from the University of Alabama (Birmingham) in 1998, and a PhD in Biostatistics from the University of Mississippi in 2008. He completed his training in ophthalmology at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary in 1989, followed by a retinal fellowship at the MRC Sickle Cell Clinic in Kingston, Jamaica from 1990-1992. As a Professor in the Departments of Preventive Medicine and Ophthalmology at the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC), Dr. Penman consults regularly with investigators conducting clinical studies and population research. In addition, he directs and teaches courses in epidemiology, biostatistics, public health and disease prevention for medical students and graduate medical faculty. He is a listed author on 87 peer-reviewed publications.Dr. Kimberly Crowder is Professor and Chair of the Department of Ophthalmology at theUniversity of Mississippi Medical Center.
