About
Dr. Kian Madjedi is a resident in the program. Prior to moving to Alberta to start residency, he completed his MD at the Northern Ontario School of Medicine. As a Rhodes Scholarship finalist and Global Grant Scholar, he earned a Masters’ in Epidemiology at the University of Cambridge, where his dissertation examined genetic associations with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma. He also holds a second master’s degree focused on the Philosophy of Science for which he was named an academic gold medalist.
He is an active member of several UK and US-based research groups focused on identifying gene-environment interactions in glaucoma. His multiple ongoing projects use Mendelian Randomization and ‘big data’ approaches to identify systemic associations with POAG. Most recently, his work identified links with estrogen in a study that won Best Presentation at the American Academy of Ophthalmology.
