The XXV ISER Business meeting is an opportunity for all our members to join with our Executive Council to hear and learn about the organization, and to raise any comments (positive and/or negative) pertaining to the governance and running of the Society, the programming and organization of its research meetings, as well as the future goals of the society. As our valued members, we appreciate your input and look forward to hearing how we can improve our service to you so that the Society continues to grow and remain at the forefront of support for our international vision science researchers. We invite and welcome you all to join us at the ISER Business meeting.
