[visionlist] symposium honoring Smith & Pokorny

[Al Eisner]

A special 2-day symposium celebrating the careers of Vivianne Smith and 
Joel Pokorny will take place in Chicago on September 6-7 (Thursday and 
Friday), 2007.   Please hold the date.

Thirty talks by scientific experts will focus on topics central to 
Vivianne and Joel's research.  A list of confirmed speakers is below.  
The symposium will be hosted by the University of Chicago's Department 
of Ophthalmology & Visual Science, and will end with a banquet on 
Friday evening.  A list of conveniently located hotels with discounted 
rates will be available several months before the meeting.  Information 
about registration, which is free but required, will be circulated in 
the spring.  Any questions may be addressed to a member of the 
organizing committee (Steve Burns, Al Eisner, Randy Kardon, Steve 
Shevell, and Hannah Smithson).

We hope you will be able to join us in Chicago next September.
