ABOUT VISTA :
Vision: Science to Applications (VISTA) is a collaborative research program funded by the Canada First Research Excellence Fund (CFREF, 2016-2023) that builds on York’s world-class interdisciplinary research in biological and computer vision. VISTA spans five York faculties (Health, Engineering, Science, Arts Media Performance & Design; Liberal Arts & Professional Studies), five research centers (including the Centre for Vision Research), and over 50 partners in the international research community and non-academic sectors such as healthcare and industry.
The central scientific question that drives VISTA is ‘How can neural and/or machine systems be integrated to provide adaptive visual behavior in real-world conditions’. Answering this question will provide fundamental advances to vision science and exciting, widespread applications for visual health and technologies. Our overarching aim is to advance visual science through research that spans computational and biological perspectives and results in real-world applications.
Scholarships will be awarded competitively based on the strength of the candidate, the strength of the research proposal, and fit with the goals of the VISTA program.
OBJECTIVE :
The VISTA Training Scholarship will provide financial support to high-caliber scholars doing research that is aligned with the VISTA program under the supervision of a VISTA Core or Associate Member. If the primary supervisor is a VISTA Associate Member, a Core Member must also be identified to co-supervise. This support provides funds in addition to standard York University support to attract and train leading vision researchers of tomorrow.
Program of Study Eligibility :
VISTA Core and Associate Members will generally have an appointment in one or more of the following graduate programs:
The topic of the thesis research should contribute to VISTA’s mandate, which is to support fundamental and applied vision research that combines biological and computational perspectives and has translational potential for health, industry, or other applications.
DEADLINE
Applications must be submitted by the deadline to applyvista@yorku.ca.
DESCRIPTION : VISTA will support interdisciplinary training programs across its core fields and will support training opportunities with partners in industry and public service that will enhance the student experience.
