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 2023 OSA Meeting
(location and dates TBA soon).

Professor Boynton (1924-2006) was the recipient of numerous awards
including the Ives and Tillyer awards, and was elected to the National
Academy of Sciences and Society of Experimental Psychologists. As a young
professor at the University of Rochester, he founded the Center for Visual
Science.

(2003), Joel Pokorny and Vivienne Smith (2005), Gerald Jacobs (2007), David
Williams (2009), Dennis Dacey (2011), Jack Werner (2013), David Brainard
(2017), Christine Curcio (2019), and Andrew Stockman (2022).

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.
