Robert M. Boynton Lecture. The committee is hoping to receive nominations
that reflect the full diversity of the vision community. Nominations

The lecture was created in honor of Professor Boynton’s contributions to
the Optica vision community, and will be presented at the 2022 OSA Meeting
in Rochester, NY. Professor Boynton (1924-2006) was the recipient of
numerous awards including the Ives and Tillyer awards, and was elected to

for Visual Science.

Williams (2009), Dennis Dacey (2011), Jack Werner (2013), David Brainard
(2017), and Christine Curcio (2019).

Nominations may be made by any member of the vision community. Previously
considered nominees are eligible to be re-nominated. The nomination should
consist of an email briefly highlighting the nominee’s impact on the field
of vision science. The nomination email can be co-signed.

Nominations will be reviewed by the Optica Fall Vision Meeting planning
committee.
