In this episode, we address the critical issue of building a diverse ophthalmology workforce in these trying times. I’m joined by faculty current and previous members of the UCSF Department of Ophthalmology, who have long been deeply committed to making ophthalmology more inclusive - their insights stemming from real-world experience in a state that banned race-conscious admissions decades ago.

In this episode, we’ll unpack their thoughtful JAMA Ophthalmology commentary, The Challenge in Building Diverse Ophthalmology Residency Programs, and more.

As you listen, I hope you're not just informed by our conversation —I hope you’re inspired to promote these concepts in your own sphere of influence.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
