Moorfields Magazine

Read the latest edition of Moorfields Magazine for a spotlight on our world-leading research facility and hear from a principal investigator on what drives her to do clinical research. You can also hear about our latest developments, including an AI breakthrough in detecting a leading cause of sight loss for children, and get some practical tips for looking after your eyes this summer.

We meet our new chair, Laura Wade-Gery, to learn about her and her plans for the trust, and hear about construction beginning for Oriel, our new centre for eye care, research and education.

We also celebrate our many staff accolades, which includes the most representation of any site on the Ophthalmologist magazine’s Power List 2023.

Now available in PDF and screen reader compatible formats, the magazine also features stories from patients, staff, governors, and Moorfields Eye Charity.
