#  Introducing the 2025 Research Scholars 

 





May 09, 2025

 

 

After receiving a record number of applications, we will be welcoming nine 2025 Research Scholars later this month.

The [Harvard Ophthalmology Research Scholars Program](https://eye.hms.harvard.edu/scholarsprogram), led by Joe Arboleda, MD, PhD, and Silas Wang, MD, offers rising second- and third-year medical students an immersive eight-week experience at Mass Eye and Ear to help them build a competitive application for ophthalmology residency. Scholars are paired with a scientist, clinician, and resident to learn about research, shadow in clinical care, and participate in career coaching, community building activities, and face-to-face networking with faculty.
