Almost 30 years ago, Jay Self joined the University of Southampton as an undergraduate medical student. This month, he became Professor of Paediatric Ophthalmology and Translational Vision Science.
Over the years, Jay has dedicated his career to improving the lives of children with visual disorders through academic research, clinical care and patient support. He is a great example of how University of Southampton students can become world-leading experts in their field.
Gift of Sight has been proud to support many of Jay’s projects over the years through our Paediatric Eye Research Fund, thanks to the generosity of our donors. We’re delighted to see his achievements recognised in this well-deserved promotion.
See the photos below, showing his progression from undergraduate medical student to Professor, celebrating almost 30 years of learning and impact at the University of Southampton.
