<font color="#000000" class=""><a name="_GoBack" class=""></a><span class="" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">An important characteristic of vision in aging and Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is that rod photoreceptors are affected earlier
and more severely than are cones. Learn from experts about the physiologic basis of rod-mediated vision and how to test, interpret, and contextualize rod vision in patients and study subjects. Investigators studying patients and model systems alike will benefit
from up-to-date information on human visual neuroscience, visual function and retinal structure in aging and AMD.</span></font></div>
