Colour Perception in Colour Vision Deficiency

11 Nov Colour Perception in Colour Vision Deficiency

Posted at 16:00h in events, past-event by

Online Event 4pm to 6pm on 11th November

The symposium will focus on colour vision deficiency (CVD), exploring how perception is altered in CVD, how CVD can be diagnosed in young children, how colour information about red-green differences is processed differently in the brains of CVD observers, and how the EnChroma colour vision aid impacts colour vision in CVD. 5 speakers will present their work and there will be time for questions and discussion:
  • Alexandra Boehm (University of California, Berkeley): “Color appearance and discrimination in anomalous trichromacy”
  • Kenneth Knoblauch (Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale): “Compensation and Plasticity in Anomalous Chromatic Contrast Response”
  • Teresa Tang (University of Sussex): “ColourSpot: An iPad screening test for colour vision deficiency in young children”
  • Leticia Álvaro (Universidad Compultense de Madrid): “Metacognition in red-green dichromacy”
  • Lucy Somers (University of Sussex): “The effectiveness of notched filters for improving colour vision in anomalous trichromacy”
