A Teacher Takes a Hand, Opens a Mind, Touches a Heart, Shapes a Future

The medical fraternity lost a giant in ophthalmology on 23 September 2020. Dr James Finbarr Cullen, affectionately known to many in the ophthalmology fraternity as Barry, passed away peacefully in his sleep at home in Scotland. He had been a teacher, a mentor, a guide and friend to many residents, fellows, junior and senior ophthalmologists. He had also shaped the educational landscape of Ophthalmology in Singapore and Malaysia and is renowned for his dedication and contributions to the advancement of Neuro-Ophthalmology worldwide. In memory of Barry, The Barry Cullen International Fellowship serves to pay tribute to one of Singapore's esteemed educators in Ophthalmology. It is to honour his dedicated contribution towards educating numerous generations of ophthalmologists. SNEC is aiming to raise $625,000 in order to establish the Barry Cullen International Fellowship in Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences. SNEC will match every dollar for dollar that is donated towards this Fellowship.
