Females of Vision et al (FoVea) is a group whose mission is to enhance the success, visibility, and impact of women in vision science. Over the past eight years, FoVea has launched several initiatives to broaden participation of women in Vision Science, including (1) a Travel and Networking award program for junior scientists; (2) professional development workshops at the Vision Sciences Society annual meeting; (3) a speaker list highlighting female vision scientists; (4) a “playbook” to ensure the longevity of FoVea activities and generational knowledge; and (5) joint activities with Visibility and the SPARK Society to promote the professional development of a wide range of historically excluded scholars. The award includes an external evaluation component to assess implementation and stakeholder perceptions of FoVea activities. These efforts complement NSF’s goal of increasing participation of women, persons with disabilities, and underrepresented groups in STEM.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

Vision等人（Fovea）的女性是一个群体，其使命是增强妇女在视力科学中的成功，知名度和影响。在过去的八年中，Fovea发起了多项举措，以扩大妇女参与视力科学的参与，包括（1）针对初级科学家的旅行和网络奖； （2）Vision Sciences Society年会上的专业发展研讨会； （3）扬声器列表，强调女性视觉科学家； （4）“剧本”，以确保中央凹活动和世代知识的寿命； （5）具有可见性的联合活动和Spark社会，以促进广泛的历史排除学者的专业发展。该奖项包括评估实施和利益相关者对中央凹活动的看法的外部评估部分。这些努力完成了NSF的目标，即增加妇女，残疾人和STEM中代表性不足的群体的参与。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过使用基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响评估标准来评估NSF的法定任务。
