Bay Area Vision Research Day
By Liza Shevchuk
Bay Area Vision Research Day (BAVRD) is a free one-day research conference devoted to bringing the vision research community of the Bay Area together to present and to discuss new and exciting findings in the fields of ophthalmology, optometry, biology, neuroscience, visual psychophysics, and computer vision. What distinguishes BAVRD from other conferences is that it is organized and run by first-year graduate students from the Vision Science Graduate Group at the University of California, Berkeley.
