    This conference may be of interest to those of you who will be in the
    Baltimore area at the end of March.

    Conference Announcement:

    The 3rd Annual Vision and Attention Mini-Conference
    Saturday March 25th
    Baltimore Omni Inner Harbor Hotel

    Organized by Dan Simons (dsimons@wjh.harvard.edu)

    The conference is a one-day meeting run in conjunction with the
    annual meeting of the Eastern Psychological Association. For the
    past two years, Jeremy Wolfe and I have organized the meeting as an
    opportunity for the regional vision community to hear and discuss the
    latest work in attention and vision. We have particularly encouraged
    presentations by graduate students and post-docs who often do not
    have other chances to give talks to the attention and perception
    community. For those who are familiar with OPAM, the conference is
    essentially the same format.

    The conference is a self-contained meeting and this year includes 13
    talks (each 20 minutes long with 5 minutes for discussion). For the
    past two years, the meeting has been a great success, with attendance
    of over 100 people and a number of terrific talks. There is no
    registration fee for this meeting, although attendees are requested
    to register for the Eastern Psychological Association meeting. The
    EPA supports our program (they provide the room and A/V equipment)
    and the meeting is officially part of the EPA program. The fee for
    EPA is minimal and your contribution will help to support future
    Attention/Vision meetings as well. The complete schedule for the
    meeting is available at http://www.wjh.harvard.edu/~viscog/.

    Please forward this message to any colleagues or students who may be
    interested.

    Cheers,
    Dan
