BVI EVENTS
Events
Richard Gregory Dinner, 2009BVI runs a seminar series with national and international speakers from Europe, Australia, Asia and the USA, and has organised a number of workshops and conferences (for example, it hosted the December 2008 and 2009 meetings of the Applied Vision Association). It also regularly hosts international visitors and collaborators.
A postgraduate colloquium is held every year, rotating between the University of Bristol, Cardiff University, and the University of the West of England. In memory of the distinguished Bristol vision scientist, BVI organises an annual Richard Gregory Lecture. Previous speakers include Professor Ian Christie and Professor Vilyanur Ramachandran. In December 2009, we ran the first BVI Symposium, with themed sessions on computational models of biological vision, vision engineering and aesthetics.
