The Institute’s commitment to excellence in eye care, scientific research and medical education is supported by its donors’ generosity.
Bascom Palmer Eye Institute held a chair dedication ceremony Jan. 14 to recognize 12 distinguished faculty members who achieved the distinction of an endowed chair, the highest honor awarded at a research university.
Bascom Palmer’s worldwide leadership would not be possible without the generous support of donors and benefactors who share the institute’s commitment to excellence in eye care, scientific research and medical education.
