Can artificial intelligence reimagine the way we detect and diagnose glaucoma? Discover the innovative ways scientists and healthcare professionals are leveraging this technology (and the challenges that lie ahead) with expert glaucoma specialists Dr. Atalie Thompson and guest moderator, Dr. Jullia Rosdahl.

 

Atalie Carina Thompson, MD, MPH completed her undergraduate studies at Harvard College, masters degree at the University of California, Berkeley School of Public Health, and medical degree at Stanford. She graduated from ophthalmology residency and glaucoma fellowship at Duke University, where she was a recipient of the Heed Ophthalmic Foundation Fellowship. She is currently a clinician-scientist at the Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center where she studies the development and application of deep learning algorithms for glaucoma screening and investigates age-related changes in visual function and ophthalmic structure in older adult populations.

Jullia Rosdahl, MD, PhD

Jullia A. Rosdahl, MD, PhD, is a board-certified and fellowship-trained glaucoma specialist at the Duke Eye Center. After completing her doctoral work on retinal ganglion cell biology during her MD-PhD at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, she is working to save as many retinal ganglion cells as possible and preserving sight for her glaucoma patients as an Associate Professor of Ophthalmology at Duke University.
