The Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology is launching a third journal, Translational Vision Science & Technology, an online-only, peer-reviewed journal emphasizing multidisciplinary research that bridges the gap between basic research and clinical care.

The Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology Foundation for Eye Research is accepting nominations for the 2013 AFER/Pfizer Ophthalmics/Carl Camras Translational Research Awards.

A key role of ARVO in the eye and vision research community is to recognize excellence.

Five scientists will receive awards from the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology in 2009. Four of them will deliver lectures at the organization's annual meeting, May 3 to 7 in Fort Lauderdale, FL.
