2009 Call for Symposia
VSS seeks proposals for symposia to be held on Friday afternoon, May 8, at
the start of the 2009 VSS Annual Meeting. Four to six symposia will be
scheduled, with up to three parallel programs in each two-hour time slot.
Symposia should deal with contemporary research topics in vision research.
Symposia can be organized along the lines of content (e.g., neural bases of
object recognition, attentional mechanisms, etc.) or methodology (e.g.,
classification images, TMS, etc.), but in every case talks within a symposium
should focus on broader conceptual themes than a typical VSS presentation.
Deadline to submit Symposia:
October 31, 2008
Guidelines and submission form.
