[OPAM Information]

******************************** OPAM 2020 ********************************

28th Annual Workshop on Object Perception, Attention, and Memory

November 19, 2020 in Austin, Texas, USA

********************************************************************************



Dear OPAMers,

We would like to extend a special thanks to Yelda Semizer and Steve
Walenchok for their service to the OPAM community. Their leadership,
diligence, and enthusiasm were essential to the success of OPAM XXVII. It
was such a pleasure to work with them as a team.

With Yelda and Steve leaving the OPAM team, we are seeking two new OPAM
organizers for two-year terms starting in 2020. Selection of organizers
will be based on candidates’ experience and nomination letter, which should
be sent to opam.info at gmail.com by February 28th, 2020. Please include a
link to the candidate's website and CV in the nominations. Interested
candidates are encouraged to ask for one nomination from a researcher who
knows them well. If that person is not also the candidate's 2020
supervisor, we require a short letter of approval from that person.



Criteria for the selection of OPAM organizers include the breadth and depth
of research experience and expertise in visual cognition (e.g., familiarity
with a broad range of object-processing literature), as well as
organizational and interpersonal skills. Preference is given to
early-career researchers without faculty positions at the time of
appointment, particularly postdoctoral researchers.

Excitement for graduate and postdoctoral research is required!

Thanks again to everyone who made OPAM 2019 such a success. Special thanks
to our sponsors, who keep OPAM free! Stay tuned for exciting announcements
about OPAM 2020 in the coming months.

Sincerely,

OPAM 2019 organizers

Deb Cronin, Patrick Cox, Yelda Semizer, & Steve Walenchok
