    Subject: Postdoctoral Position: Peripheral Visual Function in Normal and
     Diseased Eyes.

    Postdoctoral Position: Peripheral Visual Function in Normal and Diseased Eyes.

    Applications are invited for a two-year post-doctoral fellowship to
    collaborate with studies of peripheral visual function in normal and
    diseased eyes. Ongoing research projects include measurement and modelling
    of peripheral color vision, motion perception and flicker sensitivity.
    These techniques are used to study patients with glaucoma, with the goals
    of distinguishing cell dysfunction from cell death and of relating ganglion
    cell damage to visual dysfunction.

    Candidates should have a background in visual psychophysics and an interest
    in applying the methods and models of basic visual research to the study of
    ocular disease.

    The State University of New York College of Optometry provides a congenial
    research atmosphere, an excellent library, and interaction with colleagues
    in many areas of vision science. The central Manhattan location facilitates
    intellectual, cultural and other activities. Salary will be competitive
    and commensurate with experience.

    Candidates should email their CV's as soon as possible to
    bswanson@sunyopt.edu. A formal application including CV, reprints and
    preprints, and letters from two references should be mailed to the address
    below.
