Abstract: The second NorVIS Young Researchers Conference was held at the University of South-Eastern Norway (USN) in Kongsberg the 28th of May 2024. This year, it was a hybrid conference with digital attendance from Sweden and Bergen to accommodate those unable to travel. The primary goal was to share knowledge, experiences and projects for researchers in the start of their careers and to stimulate to more vision and brain research. Further it is an arena for discussing clinical problems and research ideas, and to gain network with other professionals working in the field. The one-day meeting had presentations including study protocols, master’s project, PhD and post doc clinical research from a variety of professionals. The interdisciplinary professions included a neuropsychologist, specialized nurse, occupational therapists, speech therapist and optometrists. After the presentations, Jan Johansson and Helle K. Falkenberg shared their tips and experiences on writing abstracts for papers and conferences. The meeting was organised by Torgeir S. Mathisen and Helle K. Falkenberg from USN and was partly financed by the NorVIS network, www.synogslagnett.no. The abstracts from contributed authors are listed in the order of presentation.
