Bascom Palmer Eye Institute invites you to join us for the 8th Annual Dr. Nasser Ibrahim Al-Rashid Orbital Vision Research Center Colloquium on Orbital Diseases. This exciting meeting will be held in-person on Saturday, May 30, 2026. Don’t miss it!

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This one-day scientific meeting assembles a broad array of research scientists and clinicians whose expertise and focus are principally directed to orbital oncology, traumatic optic nerve injury, and stem cell and biomedical innovations for immediate clinical application. The core objective of the meeting is to move the orbital research community to a more multi- and interdisciplinary scientific mindset by removing barriers and creating a conducive environment to collaborative interactions among investigators from different disciplines. The presentations will highlight cutting-edge molecular biology, genomic, and proteomic approaches to better understand the molecular underpinnings of these diseases and bring the state-of-the-art advanced biomaterials and regenerative medicine technologies for translating research findings into clinical reality with the ultimate aim of achieving improved visual outcomes and quality of life for orbital diseases in which effective therapy remains elusive.
