==Death==
Dr. Berger was diagnosed with gastric adenocarcinoma on January 12, 2001 after only a week-long illness. He died thirteen days later on January 25, 2001. He is survived by his wife Karen and children Adina, Tamar and Joseph.<ref>Fine, 2001</ref>
Berger was diagnosed with [[Stomach cancer|gastric adenocarcinoma]] on January 12, 2001, after a week-long illness and died less than 2 weeks later on January 25, 2001. He was married to Karen and they had three children.<ref name="Fine, 2001"/>

Berger became a pioneer in his field and laid the groundwork for so many subsequent advances in the field of quantitative fundus imaging.<ref name="Fine, 2001"/> Recognizing his commitment to mentoring students in medical research, the [https://jwbergerfoundation.org/ Jeffrey W. Berger Research Scholarship Foundation], a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2003, sponsors the Jeffrey W. Berger Medical Student Research Award at the University of Pennsylvania. The award helps to fund students' research at Penn.<ref>{{cite journal|url=https://www2.guidestar.org/profile/22-6881571|title=Jeffry W Berger Research Scholarship Tr|publisher=[[GuideStar]]|accessdate=August 26, 2019}}</ref> The award was renamed the Berger Award for Research at the University of Pennsylvania (BAR-UP) in 2021. Additionally, in 2021 the Scheie Hadassah InterNational Exchange (SHINE) Program was introduced to provide opportunities for students at Scheie to do research at Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem and students at Hadassah to do research at Scheie.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://jwbergerfoundation.org/research-opportunities/ | title=Research Opportunities – Jeffrey W.

In just 37 years, Jeffrey Berger was a pioneer in his field, a role model in his profession, an award-winning teacher in his department, and a loving husband and parent to his wife and children. His groundbreaking work was the first to apply so many recent advances in computer science and laid the foundation for the modern era of quantitative fundus imaging. Had he been able to continue his research, many of the questions that remain unsolved to this day might have been answered. Fortunately, his ideas and inspiration will live on in the knowledge that he has brought to this field.<ref>Fine, 2001</ref>

Jeffrey W. Berger (1963 – January 25, 2001) was an American vitreoretinal surgeon and engineer.

Training

[edit]

Jeffrey W. Berger graduated in 1985 from Princeton University with a bachelor's degree in engineering. He received his M.D. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Pennsylvania in 1992. He completed his ophthalmology residency at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary in 1996 and a fellowship in vitreoretinal disease at the Scheie Eye Institute of the University of Pennsylvania. He was on the faculty of the Scheie Eye Institute at the time of his death in 2001.[1]

Career

[edit]

Berger was a pioneer of quantitative retinal imaging with a number of publications on image analysis methods for modalities such as fluorescein angiography.[2][3] He recognized the value of objective analysis of digital fundus images for research and clinical practice.[4][5] He developed a system for evaluating and standardizing images in clinical trials[6][7] and was a principal investigator for the NEI-funded Complications of AMD Prevention Trial (CAPT).[8][9] He was an expert on laser tissue interactions[10][11][12] and worked on eye tracking laser systems.[13][14][15][16] Berger was also Chief of the Retina Service at the Philadelphia VA Medical Center.

Death

[edit]

Berger was diagnosed with gastric adenocarcinoma on January 12, 2001, after a week-long illness and died less than 2 weeks later on January 25, 2001. He was married to Karen and they had three children.[1]

Legacy

[edit]

Berger became a pioneer in his field and laid the groundwork for so many subsequent advances in the field of quantitative fundus imaging.[1] Recognizing his commitment to mentoring students in medical research, the Jeffrey W. Berger Research Scholarship Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2003, sponsors the Jeffrey W. Berger Medical Student Research Award at the University of Pennsylvania. The award helps to fund students' research at Penn.[17] The award was renamed the Berger Award for Research at the University of Pennsylvania (BAR-UP) in 2021. Additionally, in 2021 the Scheie Hadassah InterNational Exchange (SHINE) Program was introduced to provide opportunities for students at Scheie to do research at Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem and students at Hadassah to do research at Scheie.[18]
