Conference Description

The Gordon Conference on Visualization in Science and Education provides a forum for the critical examination of the uses of visual images in the physical and biological sciences and in mathematics, of the tools used to create these images, and of their effectiveness in conveying scientific information to specialist and novice audiences. As such, the Conference is necessarily multidisciplinary, bringing together: physical and biological scientists who use (and often create) visualizations for research and classroom use and who test their effectiveness; graphics specialists who create visualizations to advance the frontiers of science and mathematics; and cognitive scientists whose understanding of human perception and cognition guides the research and educational application of visualizations and, in turn, is informed by the results of such applications. Recent Conferences have been preceded by workshop tutorials on evaluating and creating better visualizations. Small, peer-reviewed mini-grants have been awarded post-Conference to foster the multidisciplinary research needed to create effective visualization.
