Residency 2.0
Our residents are back! Let's see what they have to say about training in 2020.
On Monday October 12th, we hosted our second Live Residents Roundtable. This time our international panel discussed what it means to be a resident today. Our group – hailing from Mexico, Switzerland, Bulgaria, Germany and Morocco – gave their take on modern residency and shared tips and tricks on getting through those early years unscathed.

I’ve always loved telling stories. So much so, I decided to make a job of it. I finished a Masters in Magazine Journalism and spent three years working as a creative copywriter before itchy feet sent me (back)packing. It took seven months and 13 countries, but I’m now happily settled on The Ophthalmologist, where I’m busy getting stuck into all things eyeballs.
