On Friday, April 21st, Dr. Morgan Fedorchak visited Mrs. Hoover’s Physics, Advanced Physics, and STEM classes. Dr. Morgan Fedorchak is a professor of Ophthalmology, Chemical Engineering, and Clinical and Translational Science at the University of Pittsburgh School Of Medicine and the Louis J. Fox Center for Vision Restoration. She currently operates her own lab at the University of Pittsburgh. The goal of the Fedorchak Lab is the development of materials that restore or protect the gift of sight. While visiting CCHS, Dr. Fedorchak talked about career options and pathways in the fields of science and engineering. She went on to share information about different cutting edge research projects that she has been involved in. Dr. Fedorchak then focused on her current research involving ocular drug delivery for glaucoma patients. The students thoroughly enjoyed her presentation. We are very grateful that she took time out of her busy schedule to visit us. Dr. Fedorchak is the daughter of our superintendent Dr. DiLeo.
