 Special Session:

  • Nick Barnes's proposal for a special session at the IEEE Int Conf on Image Processing was accepted. The session will overview both the BVA and Monash Vision Group programs, and details on clinical, stimulation strategy, psychophysics, and vision processing.  Key researchers from BVA and MVG will participate.


Hosting:

  • Professor Jean Vuillemin (ISAG/IBAG member). Monday 11 February 2013 prior to ISAG/IBAG
