Dear Vision Community

This is a reminder that the Optica Fall Vision Meeting planning
committee is now accepting nominations for the meeting's
Robert M. Boynton Lecture. The committee is hoping to receive
nominations that reflect the full diversity of the vision community.
Nominations received on or before April 25, 2025 will be considered.

The lecture was created in honor of Professor Boynton’s contributions
to the Optica vision community, and will be presented at the 2025 Optica
Fall Vision Meeting in Minneapolis (Oct 2-5).

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.
