The meeting was chaired by Dr. Guillermo Rocha and Christine Humphreys.<\/p>\n<div class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1dH_e blog-post-text-font blog-post-text-color _2QAo- _25MYV _3ZX8L _1dH_e\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1dH_e blog-post-text-font blog-post-text-color _2QAo- _25MYV _3ZX8L _1dH_e\">This meeting was developed as a partnership between The Canadian Ophthalmological Society and Canadian Blood Services in order to develop expert guidance and establish priorities to improve the system performance and access to corneal donation and transplantation in Canada. This two-day event had all the members of the corneal community coming together in an active and engaged environment to take the first steps towards building a plan for increased national communication and to inform future policy development within the field of corneal donation and transplant.<\/p>\n<div class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1dH_e blog-post-text-font blog-post-text-color _2QAo- _25MYV _3ZX8L _1dH_e\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1dH_e blog-post-text-font blog-post-text-color _2QAo- _25MYV _3ZX8L _1dH_e\">The CDTRP was honoured to participate at this event and to provide a voice for research within the corneal donation and transplantation community. We look forward to building future collaboration and to provide research infrastructure support within this field.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the COS-SCO, <a class=\"_2qJYG blog-link-hashtag-color _2IYtJ\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cos-sco.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><u class=\"sDZYg\">click here<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-top:1rem;margin-bottom:1rem;width:100%;\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element fusion-image-align-center in-legacy-container\" style=\"text-align:center;--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><div class=\"imageframe-align-center\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-1 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" title=\"Screen Shot 2020-02-24 at 8.31.28 PM\" src=\"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Screen-Shot-2020-02-24-at-8.31.28-PM.png\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Screen-Shot-2020-02-24-at-8.31.28-PM-300x300.png\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-3174\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27668%27%20height%3D%27668%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20668%20668%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27668%27%20height%3D%27668%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Screen-Shot-2020-02-24-at-8.31.28-PM-200x200.png 200w, https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Screen-Shot-2020-02-24-at-8.31.28-PM-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Screen-Shot-2020-02-24-at-8.31.28-PM-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Screen-Shot-2020-02-24-at-8.31.28-PM.png 668w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3077,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3042","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-general","category-featured"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3042"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3042"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3042\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3176,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3042\/revisions\/3176"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3077"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cdtrp.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
