The Davida Teller Award Lecture, 2016

Research in the Visual Development Unit on "dorsal stream vulnerability' (DSV) arose from research in two somewhat different areas. In the first, using cortical milestones for local and global processing from our neurobiological model, we identified cerebral visual impairment in infants in the first year of life. In the second, using photo/videorefraction in population refractive screening prog...

Davida Teller Award Lecture 2016: Prologue.

A visual scientist might be considered successful for making inroads into one problem area. Davida Teller stood out for at least three: her contributions to models of visual detection and discrimination, to theoretical discussions of psychophysical linking hypotheses, and to the creation of the modern science of visual development in infants. She received multiple honors, including the Friedenw...

The 2016 Visualization Technical Achievement Award

Jeffrey Heer is an Associate Professor in the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Washington.
