Time is Running Out to View the Remaining Three ASCO Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging Speaker Series Recordings

The remaining three recordings of ASCO’s Eye on Diversity Speaker Series, a component of a larger diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging initiative generously sponsored by Johnson & Johnson Vision, are still available; but only through December 31, 2023.

“We are happy to collaborate with ASCO to help make a difference for patients, providers, and the eyecare industry,” says Dr. Charissa Lee, Johnson & Johnson Vision’s Head of North America Professional Affairs. “Diversity must always be at top of the mind for healthcare practitioners, and this speaker series, as well as the greater Eye on Diversity project, is a big step in the right direction.”

The goal of ASCO’s Eye on Diversity Speaker Series is to engage world-renowned content experts from outside optometry to share powerful insights, experiences, and knowledge around diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. By sharing these insights and experiences, ASCO and Johnson & Johnson Vision strive to stimulate deeper conversations and commitment to action around diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging throughout optometric education and all of optometry. 

The three remaining speakers and the topics they discuss are:

1. Patricia Arredondo, “Thriving through Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging: A Continuous Journey” https://www.pathlms.com/asco/courses/46923/video_presentations/246002         
2. Vincent Pompei, “Creating an Inclusive Environment for LGBT+ Patients and Staff” https://www.pathlms.com/asco/courses/46924       
3. Cie Armstead, “Building an Inclusive Culture: As a Doctor of Optometry, What's in It for Me?” https://www.pathlms.com/asco/courses/46925/video_presentations/243366
