Reduced Membership Policy

The Vision Sciences Society is committed to assist with costs of participating in the Society for researchers from countries with limited access to research support.  As a policy, the Vision Sciences Society uses published data from the World Bank and from the Organization of Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) on countries’ Gross Domestic Expenditure in Research and Development to determine whether researchers qualify for reduced membership. Please contact the VSS administrator, Shauney Wilson, if you would like to request reduced membership on this basis.
