As you know, Dr. Cronin has profoundly shaped the field of visual ecology through the influence of his research on society, technology, and the general public, as well as by broadening participation within this area through his mentoring, teaching and collaborations.  His work continues to fuel innovation in areas of bio-inspired technology.  The symposium will feature scientific talks given by Cronin laboratory alumni, which will highlight the broad, international impact of Dr. Cronin's career to date on visual ecology and related topics. Lunch and a social hour will be provided, as well!  We are very excited for this opportunity to bring scientists and friends together from around the world and share great science and conversation!
