Dr. William E. Scott has been named a Guest of Honor for the 2003 American Academy of Ophthalmology Annual Meeting in Anaheim, California.

Dr. Scott joined the Ophthalmology faculty in 1971 after receiving B.S., M.S., and M.D. degrees from the UI. He is the founding director of the Pediatric Ophthalmology and Adult Strabismus Service, which is recognized as one of the nation's leading training programs for residents and fellows. He served as the Department's vice chair from April 1995 to September 2001. Throughout his career, Dr. Scott has emphasized the importance of combining clinical care and education with his research, treating many children while simultaneously training the pediatric ophthalmologists of tomorrow. To honor this accomplished teacher, scholar, and clinician, the William E. Scott Chair for Education in Pediatric Ophthalmology was established in 2001 with a generous anonymous gift of more than $1.5 million.
