MCSL Summer Short Course 2009:
Essentials of Color Science
June 22-23, 2010
We are currently assembling the material for this year's courses. We hope to be posting more information here soon. Please email Val Hemink and let her know you are interested.
About the Instructors
Roy S. Berns
Roy Berns is the Richard S. Hunter Professor of Color Science,
Appearance, and Technology at RIT. He received B.S. and M.S. degrees
in Textile Science from the University of California at Davis and a Ph.D.
in Chemistry with an emphasis on color science from Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute. Professor Berns teaches courses on applied colorimetry
and color modeling and leads a research group in the area of
spectral imaging, archiving, and reproduction of cultural heritage. He has
been active in color tolerance measurements and equations and was a
member of the CIE committees that developed CIE94 and CIEDE2000.
He is the author of Billmeyer and Saltzman’s Principles of Color
Technology, 3rd edition and numerous publications. He was presented
with the Macbeth Award by the Inter-Society Color Council for his
research on color science and leadership of color-science education. He is
a Fellow of the Society of Imaging Science and Technology and the recipient
of that society’s Journal Award. (homepage)
Mark D. Fairchild
Mark Fairchild is the Director of the Munsell Color Science Laboratory
and Xerox Professor of Color Science at RIT. He received his B.S. and
M.S. degrees in Imaging Science from RIT and his Ph.D. in Vision
Science from the University of Rochester. Professor Fairchild teaches
courses on colorimetry, color reproduction, and color appearance and performs
research in the areas of image appearance, quality, perception, and
rendering. He is the author of Color Appearance Models and numerous
technical papers and presentation in a variety of areas of color science.
He was presented with the Bartleson Award by the Colour Group (Great
Britain) and the Macbeth Award by the Inter-Society Color Council for
his research on color appearance. He is also a Fellow of the Society of
Imaging Science and Technology. (homepage)
James Ferwerda
James A. Ferwerda is an Associate Professor in the Munsell Color Science Laboratory.
He received a B.A. in Psychology (1980), M.S. in Computer Graphics (1987), and a Ph.D. in
Experimental Psychology (1998), all from Cornell University. Professor Ferwerda teaches
courses on imaging systems analysis, color measurement, and computational color science.
Current research interests include high dynamic range imaging, perceptually-based image
synthesis, perception of material properties, and low vision and assistive technologies.
Prior to joining the Faculty at RIT he was a Research Associate in the Program of Computer
Graphics at Cornell. In 1992 he received the IEEE Computer Society Paper of the Year Award,
and in 2003 he was selected for the National Academy of Engineering Frontiers of Engineering
Program. (homepage)
David R. Wyble
Dave Wyble is a Color Scientist within the Munsell Color Science
Laboratory. He received an M.S. from RIT and a Ph.D. from Chiba University, both in Color Science.
He teaches the graduate color science Color Measurement Laboratory 1. He has taught
graduate and undergraduate Imaging Science courses for the last 10
years. Dr. Wyble is active in the Inter-Society Color Council and the
Council for Optical Radiation Measurements. His research interests are in
color measurement instrumentation and device characterization techniques.
