moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.yorku.ca">York
University</a></font> in Toronto, Canada offers a one-week,
all-expenses-paid undergraduate summer school on vision science.
This year's program will be held June 3-7, 2019.<br>
<br>
This year's summer school is being held in cooperation with the <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://vista.info.yorku.ca/">Vision:
Science to Applications </a>(<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://vista.info.yorku.ca/">VISTA) </a>initiative that
has enabled us to expand the size and scope of the summer school.<br>
<br>
The program includes talks by CVR faculty members on current
research topics in vision science, as well as hands-on experience
in CVR laboratories. The curriculum reflects the wide range of
research areas at CVR, which includes research on human visual
perception, computer vision, machine learning, visual
neuroscience, 3D film, immersive environments, and visual
disorders.<br>
<br>
The program accepts undergraduate students who are interested in
pursuing a career in scientific research. It is intended mainly
for students who are planning to apply to graduate school in the
fall of 2019 (for entry in fall 2020), and who are interested in
investigating vision science as an area of research. Citizens of
all countries are eligible. The application deadline is Monday
February 18, 2019 .<br>
<br>
The program covers all transportation costs and provides on-campus
accommodation and meals.<br>
<br>
Application instructions are available on the <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.yorku.ca/cvrss/">CVR
summer school website</a>. The application deadline is Monday
February 18, and applicants will be notified of decisions by March
1, 2019. We expect to accept between 30 and 40 students.<br>
