ABOUT

This event is one of a series of workshops organized by the PRISM network, which is a Marie-Curie Initial Training Network (ITN). The workshop will host invited talks and poster sessions featuring latest research on how the brain represents the richly detailed visual ‘look and feel’ of surfaces and objects in our everyday surroundings. The purpose of the meeting is to bring together researchers from different fields to present their ongoing work related to shape, shading and materials.
