University of Manchester, UK. The project is funded by the Leverhulme
Trust and is led by David Foster in the Department of Electrical and

limits on real-world colour perception by individuals free to observe
and move while immersed in realistic, natural 3D environments.

The project is due to start April 2023 or as soon as possible
thereafter. Salary will be £34,308 to £42,155 per annum, depending on

colour vision, coding for computer-controlled displays, and image
processing. They should also have good organizational skills,
