AOIP Facilities

The AOIP lab is located on the campus of the Milwaukee Regional Medical Center at the Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin Eye Institute. Our location within the Eye Institute, the only ophthalmology and visual sciences institute in Southeast Wisconsin, puts us in an advantageous position for collaborative research with clinical faculty. Working closely with our clinicians at the Eye Institute allows us to pursue our goal of developing and applying translational ocular imaging tools to improve detection, diagnosis, and management of eye disease.
