within the scope of this position. The School of Optometry has 
excellent clinical facilities and a large, diverse patient 
population, a Clinical Research Center, a new K12 (mentored clinician 
scientist) training program, and a large number of basic research

PhD/MPH or equivalent research training, postdoctoral experience, and

clinical or translational patient-based research program that 
attracts extramural funding, and participate in teaching in both the 
professional and graduate curricula in Optometry and Vision Science.

that describes translational research.
