Theodore Leng, MD, FACS
Associate Professor of Ophthalmology and, by courtesy, of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (Adult MSD)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Leng was the first surgeon in California to perform a subretinal transplant of adult neural stem cells into patients with macular degeneration and is actively researching cellular, biologic and laser-based therapies for macular degeneration. He also has an active program in imaging informatics and deep learning to perform big data analyses of retinal scans to identify patients who are at risk for retinal disease deterioration. The end goal is earlier detection and rapid treatment to maximize visual outcomes.
Dr. Leng is considered a leading expert on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT-based angiography (OCTA), a non-invasive and non-contact imaging technique for the retina. He is also considered a key opinion leader in artificial intelligence and data science. -

Steven Seth Lipman
Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioThe thematic focus of my clinical work and research centers on Women's Health. In the clinical domain, I care for patients spanning the continuum of conception through birth and afterwards, such as patients requiring assisted reproductive technologies at the REI Clinic, parturients presenting to Labor & Delivery, and patients requiring gynecologic or breast surgical procedures. In the research domain, I have previously been interested in the ways in which team performance and facility factors can affect patient safety as they relate to Women's and Neonatal Health. As a result, my scholarly publications have been related to obstetric simulation and team performance and maternal cardio-pulmonary resuscitation. After 6 years in private practice in Southern California, I've returned to The Farm as Program Director of the Obstetric Anesthesia Fellowship. In this next phase of my career, I'm going to focus my energies on mentoring fellows on the labor unit.
