[vslist] 25th Pupil Colloquium

[Peter Howarth]

(Apologies for cross-posting)

This message is an invitation to attend the next Pupil Colloquium.

The Colloquium has a history going back to the 1961 when Larry Stark
organised the first meeting, in Boston.  Recent meetings have been held in
Asilomar, California (2001), Nottingham, England (1999), Alabama (1997),
T=FCbingen, Germany (1995), Iowa City (1993) and Woods Hole, USA (1991).=20

The Colloquium is a meeting of people, from different backgrounds, who have
a common interest in the pupil of the eye. There are not many of us, and so
our meetings are generally small, friendly, and relatively informal. We
discuss any aspect of the pupil, from its use in a clinical setting,
providing information about the health of the eye, to how it's responses
can be modelled mathematically.=20

The next Colloquium will be held in September 2003, from 10th/11th - 14th,
in Crete.  The location is the Conference Centre of the Orthodox Academy of
Crete, in Kolimpari, a small village 12Km outside Hania.  The host is Dr.
Panos Bitsios, and I will again be organising the proceedings.

The Irene Loewenfeld lecture will be given by Dr. Randy Kardon.


Details other than the dates are a little sparce at the moment, but
whenever I have any information I will update the Pupil page:
