[visionlist] Training Course: Using MATLAB for Vision Science [All Places Now Taken, New Dates To Be Announced]

[Steve Elliott]

All the places on this course have been taken, but due to overwhelming
demand Durham University are considering running it again later in the
academic year (e.g. January 2009). If you are interested in reserving a
place for the next course, please contact Hannah Smithson
(hannah.smithson at durham.ac.uk).

> Subject: [visionlist] Training Course: Using MATLAB for Vision Science
> 
> We are pleased to announce a new short-course in MATLAB programming
for
> vision science, with emphasis on the Cambridge Research Systems ViSaGe
> and Video Eyetracker Toolbox systems (see: www.crsltd.com/visage and
> www.crsltd.com/hs-vet for information about the equipment). The course
> will run for the week of 29th September - 3rd October 2008, in the
newly
> formed CRS Robson Suite at the Department of Psychology, Durham
> University, UK.
> 
> The course will run as a series of practical sessions using worksheets
> and exercises developed as part of the Durham University MSc in
> Cognitive Neuroscience. Two experienced researchers (Hannah Smithson
and
> Bob Kentridge) will be on-hand throughout the course to offer tuition.
> The first two days will provide a general introduction to MATLAB
> programming, for people with little or no previous programming
> experience, or for those new to MATLAB. The last 3-days will focus on
> using the ViSaGe (including calibration, basic colorimetry, stimulus
> presentation and animation, response collection, randomization,
> psychophysical methods), and on using the Video Eyetracker Toolbox.
The
> course fee will be GBP300. Experienced programmers may wish to attend
> only for the last 3-days, for a reduced fee of GBP200. It is expected
> that the course will be useful for graduate students and post-docs who
> are starting out in vision research.
> 
> For further information, details of how to reserve a place and college
> accommodation in Durham, please contact Hannah Smithson
> (hannah.smithson at durham.ac.uk) or Steven Elliott
