[OPAM Conference]

Subj: OPAM 2025 Call for Organizers



******************************** OPAM 2025 ********************************

33rd Annual Workshop on Object Perception, Attention, and Memory

http://www.opam.net/

November 20, 2025 in Denver, CO, USA

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



Dear OPAMers,



Firstly, we would like to acknowledge the exceptional contributions made by
our outgoing OPAM organizers; Han Zhang, Ryan O’Donnell and Karolina Krzys.
Their work was crucial for a successful OPAM32 in New York last year.
Furthermore, their contributions were key in acquiring an NSF grant to help
fund new initiatives to grow the OPAM community in the years to come. They
were inspirational to work with and we look forward to their continued
involvement from the sidelines!



We are currently seeking to fill *three* positions as OPAM organizers for
two-year terms starting in spring 2025. The selection process will be based
on candidates’ experience and nomination letter, which should be sent to
opam.info at gmail.com by *March 1st, 2025*. We ask that a link to the
candidate’s website (if applicable) and a CV is submitted along the
nomination letter. Interested candidates are encouraged to seek a
nomination from a researcher who knows them well. If that person is not the
candidate's supervisor, we require a short letter of approval from the
supervisor. The candidates are also encouraged to include a short cover
letter expressing how they see themselves contributing to the growth of the
OPAM community in the years to come, with special emphasis on our now NSF
funded initiatives to increase the diversity and reach of our community.



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 excellent
organizational and interpersonal skills. Preference is given to
early-career researchers without faculty positions at the time of
appointment, particularly postdoctoral researchers.



We look forward to receiving nominations from qualified candidates eager to
contribute to the continued success of OPAM. Should you have any questions
or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact us at
opam.info at gmail.com.



Thanks again to everyone who made OPAM 2024 such a success. Special thanks
to our sponsors, who keep OPAM free! Stay tuned for exciting announcements
about OPAM 2024 in the coming months.



Sincerely,

The 2025 OPAM organizers

Dock Duncan, Noah Britt, William Nasri-Martinez
