Ophthalmic Innovation Symposium and Workshop at Stanford
July 28, 2026
REGISTRATION IS OPEN
The Ophthalmic Innovation Program teaches the basic principles that facilitate the introduction of products and technical advances into clinical practice: regulatory science, clinical trial design, strategic decision making, reimbursement, protection of intellectual property, and the development of a high-performance organizational structure – topics not taught in medical school or in residency but are critical for successful medical innovation.
Are You a Student or Innovator in Training?
CCOI is committed to supporting the next generation of ophthalmic innovators. To help reduce financial barriers to participation, a limited number of Travel Grants of up to $1,000 are available for Students, Residents, Fellows, Postdoctoral Trainees, and other Innovators in Training attending the meeting in person.
Travel Grant funding may be used to offset eligible travel, lodging, and meeting-related expenses associated with attendance. We encourage qualified trainees and early-career innovators to apply early, as funding is limited and awards will be made on a competitive basis.
