Over the past decades, the visual system of insects has emerged as a powerful model system to investigate the underlying mechanisms of neuronal network function. This meeting brought together scientists interested in visual perception, focusing on such areas as the biophysical limits of vision, motion vision and polarized light detection, through navigation and multisensory integration. This small meeting of leading scientists working in these areas provided a forum for vigorous discussion of novel approaches and insights into visual system function.
