It is our pleasure to announce that the 2011 Asia-Pacific Conference on Vision (APCV) will be held from Friday 15 to Monday 18 July 2011 at the University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China.

APCV aims to facilitate debate concerning vision research throughout the Asia-Pacific by bringing together scientists from the broad range of disciplines contributing to modern vision science, including:

  • Visual Psychophysics
  • Visual Physiology & Anatomy
  • Visual Cognition
  • Perception and Action
  • Computational Vision
  • Artificial Vision
  • Brain Imaging
  • Eye Movements
  • Multisensory Integration
  • Visual Development
  • Vision and Reading

Attendees come from around the world but are mainly from the Asia-Pacific region (e.g., Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan, Australia). The language of the conference is English.

Confirmed keynote speakers for the conference are Jeremy Wolfe (Harvard Medical School), Marty Banks (UC Berkeley), and KF So (HKU).

We will accept submissions for either talk (15 minute) or poster presentations. Submissions will open February 1, 2011. Abstracts (max length 200 words) will be published on-line and in a special issue of a vision journal. The deadline for abstract submission is March 10, 2011.

The meeting location on Hong Kong Island provides easy access to some of Hong Kong's most famous sights including the spectacular views from the Peak and the dining/entertainment precincts of Lan Kwai Fong and SoHo. The optional conference banquet will be preceded by a boat trip allowing you to experience two of Hong Kong's main attractions: Victoria Harbour and Cantonese cuisine.

A limited number of travel grants are available for students presenting their work in the meeting.

APCV 2011 is hosted by the Department of Psychology and Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Hong Kong, with additional support from the School of Optometry, Hong Kong Polytechnic University and the Department of Industrial Engineering and Logistics Management, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

We look forward to seeing you at APCV2011, Hong Kong!
