On this week’s episode of the RI In-Focus podcast, Dr. Orla Galvin welcomes Professor Jose Carlos Pastor from the Institute for Applied Ophthalmology (IOBA) in Valladolid, Spain, who is Director of the IOBA retina group.
Jose is also an ophthalmologist and joins Orla to discuss his experience of COVID-19 and its impact on ophthalmology which he believes is not being considered a priority health discipline, particularly from his experience within the clinic.
Additionally, Jose speaks very passionately about the need for adopting a multidisciplinary and more unified approach to advancing research in all specialties, something he feels will emerge after the COVID-19 pandemic as scientists from various research collaborate in earnest to develop a safe and effective vaccine.
