20th International Visual Field and Imaging Symposium, 2012
We are delighted to invite you to participate in the 20th International Visual Field and Imaging Symposium, 2012, organized by the Imaging and Perimetry Society (IPS).
The meeting will be hosted at the University of Melbourne, Australia, and will be the first time that the meeting has been conducted in the southern hemisphere.
The scientific program will include symposia and free communications, and will provide ample time and space for poster presentations.
January is summer in Melbourne, a great time to visit the sporting and cultural capital of Australia. We invite you to come and discover why Melbourne is one of the best places in the world to live – and visit.
We look forward to seeing you in Melbourne, January 2012.

Who should attend?
The International Visual Field and Imaging Symposium is a scientific conference on visual field and imaging research that takes place every two years at various international locations, organized by the Imaging and Perimetry Society (IPS). Both members and non-members of the IPS are welcome to attend.
The study of visual function and ocular imaging is an interdisciplinary research area, with contributions from the clinical professions involved in eye care, as well as non-clinical researchers with varied backgrounds such as statistics, computer science, physiology, and visual neuroscience. We strongly encourage presentations from graduate students.
Research topics include: visual field quantification and analysis, new techniques in ocular imaging and visual field assessment, the relationship between structural and functional assessments in the eye, functional and structural measures of eye-disease progression, and how measures of structure and function relate to performance on daily activities.
