Thanos Papakostas, MD

It is a great honor to be a member of the Michels Fellows family. I completed my residency and fellowship at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, and I have been on faculty at the Weill Cornell Department of Ophthalmology as an Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology since 2017.

My research is focused on novel treatments for proliferative vitreoretinopathy, new surgical techniques and retinal imaging. I maintain a busy surgical and medical retina practice and serve as a preceptor to students, residents and fellows.
