The organisers of the conference, and the scientific program, are Professor Eric Warrant and Professor Dan-Eric Nilsson from the University of Lund.

The scientific program will be divided into nine themes and each theme will have a dedicated plenary lecturer. We have been fortunate enough to secure the following plenary lecturers:

Michael Dickinson, USA (visual control of flight & locomotion)
Kristian Donner, Finland (transduction & signalling)
Nicolas Franceschini, France (biomimetics: machine vision inspired by invertebrate vision)
Uwe Homberg, Germany (polarisation vision & navigation)
Almut Kelber, Sweden (colour vision)
Jeremy Niven, Panama (coding & energetics)
David O'Carroll, Australia (motion vision)
Justin Marshall, Australia (aquatic vision)
Jochen Zeil, Australia (spatial vision & orientation)
