Overview

Samuel W. Cushman is affiliated with the National Institutes of Health in the United States. Their research contributions are documented primarily through their recent scholarly publication.

Their latest paper, titled "Shelf-Stable, Cryopreserved Amniotic Membrane for the Management of Ocular Surface Disease: A Retrospective Assessment," was published in 2025 in the journal Clinical Optometry. This work addresses the use of cryopreserved amniotic membranes for ocular surface disease treatment, indicating a focus on therapeutic approaches within clinical optometry.

Their publication record, though currently concise, centers on the journal Clinical Optometry, which is the frequent venue for their published work.
