Edward Korot, MD

Award Year: 2021

I am exceedingly honored and humbled to join the Michels family! I would not be here without the support of my mentors, to whom I am eternally grateful, and wish to model by mentoring others in my future career.

I am currently a vitreoretinal surgeon at Retina Specialists of Michigan following the completion of my fellowship at Stanford. I continue to be guided by the goal of maximally scaling the care I can provide. My work involves using technology as a force multiplier. Specifically, I focus on AI validation, guideline development, explainability, safety, and AI-driven pharmaceutical trial recruitment. I enjoy working with large companies and startups alike on my passion: moving research from publication to actual real world implementation for patient benefit.

In my spare time, you can find me playing tennis, practicing drone photography, and attempting to do yoga.
