Hi,

I wanted to share with everyone a great website/Podcast which has been created by one of my attendings at NYU, Dr. Joshua Young. There, you can hear him interview the authors of cutting edge ophthalmology research publications.

In addition, you can call a listener response line to ask questions of the interviewees, make comments about the topics discussed or make suggestions for the show. It's very interactive & definitely worth checking out!
