The primary objective of this exploratory grant is to examine the use of
consanguineous pedigrees for quantitative trait mapping and to perform
initial gene mapping studies for selected quantitative traits that are
significant risk factors for common ocular complex disorders. A longterm goal is to use this approach to develop and support a
genotype/phenotype database resource that will enable investigators to
discover, assess and validate genes and biomarkers responsible for
quantitative traits that contribute to complex human ocular disease. Dr.
Friedman will supervise the collection of data on ocular phenotypes for
this research.

Classroom Teaching
Co-Director, Scholarly Concentration Medical School Course (Required of all Medical
Students), Public Health and Community Service (2008 – present)
The Scholarly Concentration (SC) program provides medical students with faculty-mentored scholarly
experiences in areas of individual interest. This required component of the MD curriculum provides the
infrastructure and mentoring necessary for students to produce a scholarly project, and encourages the
acquisition of attitudes and skills for self-directed, lifelong learning and scholarship.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
The objective of the SC program is to promote intellectual curiosity, appreciation of scholarly
inquiry, flexibility, passion for discovery, self-reflection, openness, independence, and
acceptance of one’s own limitations. Students will use critical thinking, independent and group
work, observational skills, and written and oral presentation to achieve these objectives.
Throughout the process, each student will receive feedback from faculty and other students.
