CVR-VISTA Vision Science Summer School, 2019
YORK UNIVERSITY, TORONTO,CANADA

The Centre for Vision Research <http://cvr.yorku.ca/> (CVR 
<http://cvr.yorku.ca/>) at York University <http://www.yorku.ca> in 
Toronto, Canada offers a one-week, all-expenses-paid undergraduate 
summer school on vision science. This year's program will be held June 
3-7, 2019.

This year's summer school is being held in cooperation with the Vision: 
Science to Applications <http://vista.info.yorku.ca/>(VISTA) 
<http://vista.info.yorku.ca/>initiative that has enabled us to expand 
the size and scope of the summer school.

The program includes talks by CVR faculty members on current research 
topics in vision science, as well as hands-on experience in CVR 
laboratories. The curriculum reflects the wide range of research areas 
at CVR, which includes research on human visual perception, computer 
vision, machine learning, visual neuroscience, 3D film, immersive 
environments, and visual disorders.

The program accepts undergraduate students who are interested in 
pursuing a career in scientific research. It is intended mainly for 
students who are planning to apply to graduate school in the fall of 
2019 (for entry in fall 2020), and who are interested in investigating 
vision science as an area of research. Citizens of all countries are 
eligible. The application deadline is Monday February 18, 2019 .

The program covers all transportation costs and provides on-campus 
accommodation and meals.

Application instructions are available on the CVR summer school website 
<http://www.yorku.ca/cvrss/>.  The application deadline is Monday 
February 18, and applicants will be notified of decisions by March 1, 
2019. We expect to accept between 30 and 40 students.
