Hi! I am a M1 at a MD school without an Ophthalmology home program. Does anyone have any projects I can get involved in or have any suggestions for getting involved in more research?

What area of ophthalmology might you be interested in doing research? Do you have opportunities for externships at your program?

Hi! I'm interested in glaucoma research but would be open to any kind of exposure! It has been a little bit more difficult without a home program, but I'd really love to continue exploring ophtho through research.

Do you have any other suggestions for getting more exposure to the field at a school without a home department?

got nothing to offer (also M1 interested in ophtho w/o home program).. but good luck!! it is honestly so tough
Can't speak to ophtho specifically but I'd say the first thing to start is try to find what research is available at your home program. I'm interested in IR and PD consensus is that while IR research > any research, Any research >>>> no research.
Beyond that: Does your school rotate at any hospitals with ophtho programs? Would focus there first.
