Description

Greeting:
The Vision Science Forum Japan is characterized by high-density discussions among researchers from various academic fields on visual functions. This year's Forum will be a hybrid face-to-face & online meeting at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST). There will be 7 invited lectures. We would like to invite Abstract submissions. The abstracts will basically be poster presentations. The abstracts will be reviewed by the organizing committee based on the abstracts submitted, and we would like to request oral presentations for outstanding research. Please consider registering and making a presentation.

Most speakers are planning to deliver their presentations in Japanese, but we have requested that their slides be in English.
