MEETING SCHEDULE
The Vision and Color Division of the OSA is holding a high-quality, low-cost, 3-day satellite meeting at the University of California Irvine immediately before the OSA Annual meeting in Long Beach. Our goal is to reinvigorate our Division, which has suffered from declining attendance over recent years, and to encourage local participation.
The meeting in Irvine will consist of sessions on Color and sessions on Vision. Sessions on Applications of Vision Science will be scheduled during the OSA Annual meeting in Long Beach on Tuesday, October 16th, 2001. Attendance at the satellite meeting will be FREE; there will be no formal registration fee. To attend the Applied Vision and Optics sessions, you must pay the one-day OSA registration fee.
A new biennial invited talk named in honor of Robert M. Boynton will be presented on Sunday evening. The first speaker, Rhea Eskew, was chosen by Bob for his contributions to OSA and vision science. The talk will be introduced by Robert M. Boynton.
Please contact any of the organizers or committee members for further information.

REGISTRATION
There is no formal
registration for the satellite meeting.
However, if you do plan to attend and you are not presenting a paper or
poster, please e-mail a.stockman@ucl.ac.uk, so that we
can get an idea of the likely attendance.
Audio-visual arrangements
The room will have two slide
projectors, one overhead, and a computer projector.
Poster Dimensions
Posters should be less than
48" wide and 48" high.
The deadline for abstract submissions has passed.
Nevertheless, we will continue to consider abstract submissions for posters (250 words, including titles, submitted to the OSA/UCI meeting c/o Andrew Stockman at a.stockman@ucl.ac.uk).
Young Investigator Award
The Young Investigator Award is given annually to the best Presentation within the Division of Vision and Color. The award is based on: (1) the scientific rigor and/or engineering excellence of the presented work; (2) originality; (3) the clarity of the presentation. Poster presentations and oral presentations are considered equally.
Eligibility: Students at the undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral level who are giving a presentation at the OSA/UCI Vision and Color meeting are also eligible for this award. When submitting the abstract, please notify us that you wish to be considered for this award. For further details see the OSA call for papers.
